Product Name lovastatin nonaketide synthase
Example Structure Example Structure of lovastatin nonaketide synthase EC#: 2.3.1.161
Synonyms LNKS, lovastatin nonaketide synthase, LovB, synthase, lovastatin nonaketide
EC Number 2.3.1.161
CAS Registry Number 235426-97-8
Comments This fungal enzyme system comprises a multi-functional polyketide synthase (PKS) and an enoyl reductase. The PKS catalyses many of the chain building reactions of EC 2.3.1.85, fatty-acid synthase system, as well as a reductive methylation and a Diels-Alder reaction, while the reductase is responsible for three enoyl reductions that are necessary for dihydromonacolin L acid production.
Cofactor
History
Reactions 9 malonyl-CoA + 11 Nadph + S-adenosyl-L-methionine + holo-[lovastatin nonaketide synthase] = dihydromonacolin L-[lovastatin nonaketide synthase] + 9 CoA + 9 CO(2) + 11 NADP(+) + S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + 6 H(2)O.
