PKSs usually work by constructing and modifying the polyketide backbone successively. Here, we present the cryo-EM structure of CalA3, a chain release PKS module without an ACP domain, and its structures with amidation or hydrolysis products. The domain organization reveals a unique "infinity"-shaped dimeric architecture with five connected domains. The catalytic region tightly contacts the structural region, resulting in two stabilized chambers with nearly perfect symmetry while the N-terminal docking domain is flexible. The structures of the ketosynthase (KS) domain illustrate how the conserved key residues that canonically catalyze C-C bond formation can be tweaked to mediate C-N bond formation, revealing the engineering adaptability of assembly-line polyketide synthases for the production of novel pharmaceutical agents.
