Namepolyketide biosynthesis, type I
TypeSYSTEM
DescriptionAllowed states: YES NO Polyketides are an important class of natural product which are assembled by the sequential addition of units containing at minimum one acetate group. Polyketides include many antibiotics and other compounds of biological and economic importance. Polyketides may be synthesized by large multi-domain proteins (Type I polyketide synthetases) which carry out a so-called thio-template program in which successive modules of domains add single units to the growing end of the polyketide chain, modify the newly added piece (usually a series of reductions) and pass the chain on to the next module. The overall mechanism is similar to that observed in the biosynthesis of fatty acids in animals via the Type I fatty acid synthases. By contrast, Type II polyketide synthetases, which are similar to the Type II fatty acid synthases found in bacteria and plants, consist of separate proteins for each of the various functions involved in the overall process. Plant chalcones and stilbenes are synthesized by yet a third style of synthetase in which a single condensing enzyme is active for all condensation steps. Many of the constituent domains of type I polyketide synthetases have been defined by HMM models. These include acyl transferase (PF00698), beta-ketoacyl-synthase (PF00109, PF02801), acyl carrier protein (PF00550) and thioesterase (PF00975) domains. Other commonly found domains which have not yet been represented by HMMs include ketoreductase, dehydratase and enoyl reductase domains. This genome property will be set to YES if any single gene in the genome contains domains corresponding to PF00698, PF00109, PF02801 and PF00550. (These correspond to the minimum set of domains for production of a polyketide chain.) Failing that condition, a YES will be set if two consecutive genes in combination contain all of these domains (as type I polyketide synthetases are sometimes found as multiple genes broken up between some, but not all, of the domains). Otherwise, the propery will be set to NO. A NULL value indicates that the genome has not yet been evaluated with regard to this property.
