Abstract | Fungal polyketides are a group of bioactive compounds which have found use in humans as anti-cholesterol, anti-cancer and antibiotic agents. These are synthesized by a group of enzymes called the polyketide synthases (PKSs) which are found in fungi as well as bacteria. PKSs are classified as type I, II and III. All fungal PKSs are type I iterative polyketide synthases which means they use a set of catalytic functions by a group of active domains in repetitive cycles to give the end product. Type I enzymes contain multidomains that catalyze a set of reactions.; The minimal PKS contains the domains ketosynthase (KS), acyltransferase (AT) and acyl carrier protein (ACP). The three types of PKSs are non-reduced polyketide synthases (NR-PKSs), highly-reduced polyketide synthases (HR-PKSs) and partially-reduced polyketide synthases (PR-PKSs). This classification is another form separate from type I, II and III. This paper discusses the recent research into further details of the SAT, PT and TE domain of the NR-PKSs and also recent advances in the HR-PKSs. This paper will also discuss the role of NADPH, SAM and CON domain in the HR-PKSs. We will also discuss the two off-loading mechanism of HR-PKSs that were seen in recent papers. While little research is done on PR-PKSs, NR-PKS and HR-PKS are extensively being worked on.Recent findings have brought us a step closer to the domains of the PKSs and promise us a better clearer understanding of this complex multidomain entity. |
