Modular redefinition: A long-standing paradigm in modular polyketide synthase enzymology, namely the definition of a module, has been challenged by Abe and co-workers in their recent study. With this new understanding has emerged renewed hope for engineering these assembly lines to produce new materials and medicines.
模块聚酮合酶酶学中长期存在的一个范例,即模块的定义,最近受到 Abe 及其同事的研究挑战。随着这一新认识的出现,人们重新燃起了对这些装配线进行工程改造以生产新材料和药物的希望。
