Polyketides are a large and structurally diverse class of natural products produced by bacteria, fungi, and plants. They exhibit a wide variety of biological activities including antibiotic, antitumor, anticancer, among others. | Polyketides are a large and structurally diverse class of natural products produced by bacteria, fungi, and plants.

After the extender unit is added, it can be further processed by optional tailoring domains, including ketoreductases (KRs), dehydratases (DHs), and enoyl reductases (ERs), to yield a hydroxyl, enoyl, or methylene group at the beta-position. Finally, the thioesterase (TE) domain that located at the C-terminus of DEBS module 6 promotes the macrocyclization event which releases the final product, 6-dEB. <ref>PMID:17328673</ref> | After the extender unit is added, it can be further processed by optional tailoring domains, including ketoreductases (KRs), dehydratases (DHs), and enoyl reductases (ERs), to yield a hydroxyl, enoyl, or methylene group at the beta-position.

The KS accepts the "in-progress" polyketide from its upstream module, and then catalyzes the decarboxylative condensation of ACP-bound malonyl CoA derivatives with the in-progress chain. This results in an ACP-bound β-ketothioester which is processed by any other β-carbon tailoring domains present within the module. | The KS accepts the "in-progress" polyketide from its upstream module, and then catalyzes the decarboxylative condensation of ACP-bound malonyl CoA derivatives with the in-progress chain.
