| Comments |
This polyketide synthase enzyme forms the (S)-2-methylbutanoate side chain during lovastatin biosynthesis by the filamentous fungus Aspergillus terreus. The overall reaction comprises a single condensation reaction followed by ¦Á-methylation, ¦Â-ketoreduction, dehydration, and ¦Á,¦Â enoyl reduction. |
