Erg10B catalyzes the formation of acetoacetyl-CoA from acetyl-CoA (Ref.6). The first module starts with the action of the cytosolic acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase erg10B that catalyzes the formation of acetoacetyl-CoA. The hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA synthases erg13A and erg13B then condense acetyl-CoA with acetoacetyl-CoA to form HMG-CoA. The rate-limiting step of the early module is the reduction to mevalonate by the 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductases hmg1 and hmg2. Mevalonate is also a precursor for the extracellular siderophore triacetylfusarinine C (TAFC) (Probable) (PubMed:16110826, PubMed:22106303). See Also Thiolase 3D structures
