acetyl-CoA + 3 malonyl-CoA + NADPH + H+ = 6-methylsalicylate + 4 CoA + 3 CO2 + NADP+ + H2O | 6-methylsalicylate synthesis proceeds without catalytic dehydration of the beta-hydroxy triketide intermediate by DH domain which is therefore not required for tetraketide formation. The subsequent aldol cyclization and aromatization of the tetraketide intermediate then form 6-methylsalicylate covalently bound to the ACP phosphopantetheine arm as the thioester. 6-methylsalicylate is released hydrolytically from ATX by the action of the domain hitherto called DH domain, i.e. the thioester hydrolase catalytic domain | Aspergillus terreus |

General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
evolution | 6-methylsalicylic acid synthase belongs to the iterative type I polyketide synthases | Aspergillus terreus |
physiological function | 6-methylsalicylic acid synthase from Aspergillus terreus is not involved in dehydration of the beta-hydroxytriketide intermediate tethered on the acyl carrier protein but catalyzes thioester hydrolysis to release the product from the acyl carrier protein, via its thioester hydrolase domain, a product-releasing domain that is located in the middle of a multidomain iterative type I polyketide synthase, ATX by itself can synthesize tetraketide and release 6-methylsalicylate as the free acid without involvement of serine protease-type thioesterase, product-releasing mechanism, overview | Aspergillus terreus |
