The recombinant polyketide synthase thioesterase domains from the pimaricin and 6-deoxyerythronolide B biosynthetic pathways catalyze hydrolysis of a number of simple N-acetylcysteamine thioester derivatives. This study demonstrates that thioesterases are not highly substrate selective in formation of the acyl-enzyme intermediate, in contrast to non-ribosomal peptide synthase thioesterase domains that show very high specificity for substrate loading. This observation has important implications for the engineering of biosynthetic; pathways to produce polyketide products. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
