Fungal polyketides have huge structural diversity from simple aromatics to highly modified
complex reduced-type compounds. Despite such diversty, single modular iterative type I …

Most known fungal polyketide synthases (PKSs) are iterative type I enzymes containing, as a
minimum, ketosynthase (KS), acyltransferase (AT), and acyl carrier protein (ACP) …

Polyketides represent an important class of biologically active and structurally diverse
compounds in nature. They are synthesized from acyl‐coenzyme A substrates by polyketide …

Fungal polyketides comprise of a large group of structurally diverse compounds with a wide
range of biological activities. These compounds are biosynthesised by Type I iterative …

Since our first report on the identification of the fungal type III polyketide synthase (PKS)
genes csyA∼ D in Aspergillus oryzae RIB40, type III PKS homologues have also been …

Polyketides draw much attention because of their potential use in pharmaceutical and
biotechnological applications. This study identifies an abundant pool of polyketide synthase …

Covering: 2005 to 2014 This article covers the literature on fungal type III polyketide
synthases (PKSs) published from 2005 to 2014. Since the first discovery of fungal type III …

The iterative type I polyketide synthases (IPKSs) are central to the biosynthesis of an
enormously diverse array of natural products in fungi. These natural products, known as …

Aspergillus species have the ability to produce a wide range of secondary metabolites
including polyketides that are generated by multi-domain polyketide synthases (PKSs) …

Fungal type I polyketide (PK) compounds are highly valuable for medical treatment and
extremely diverse in structure, partly because of the enzymatic activities of reducing domains …
