The cryptic thioesterase LovG is found to be responsible for product release from the lovastatin nonaketide synthase (LNKS or LovB). The same enzyme also helps improving turnover of LovB through hydrolysis of incorrectly tailored intermediates.
隐秘硫酯酶LovG 被发现负责洛伐他汀九酮合酶 (LNKS 或 LovB) 的产物释放。该酶还通过水解不合适的中间体来帮助提高 LovB 的周转率。
