Structural highlights
FunctionPublication Abstract from PubMedIn type II polyketide synthases (PKSs), the ketosynthase-chain length factor (KS-CLF) complex catalyzes polyketide chain elongation with the acyl carrier protein (ACP). Highly reducing type II PKSs, represented by IgaPKS, produce polyene structures instead of the well-known aromatic skeletons. Here, we report the crystal structures of the Iga11-Iga12 (KS-CLF) heterodimer and the covalently cross-linked Iga10=Iga11-Iga12 (ACP=KS-CLF) tripartite complex. The latter structure revealed the molecular basis of the interaction between Iga10 and Iga11-Iga12, which differs from that between the ACP and KS of Escherichia coli fatty acid synthase. Furthermore, the reaction pocket structure and site-directed mutagenesis revealed that the negative charge of Asp 113 of Iga11 prevents further condensation using a beta-ketoacyl product as a substrate, which distinguishes IgaPKS from typical type II PKSs. This work will facilitate the future rational design of PKSs.
