Type II polyketide synthases (PKSs) are enzymes responsible for the biosynthesis of bacterial aromatic polyketides.[1, 2] The type II minimum PKS—which consists of the β-ketoacyl synthase (KSα), chain length factor (CLF or KSβ), and acyl carrier protein (ACP)—synthesizes the nascent polyketide chain by successive Claisen-like decarboxylative condensations. The nascent polyketide chain is then subjected to regioselective reduction and cyclization catalyzed by dedicated ketoreductases (KRs) and cyclases, respectively, to yield an aromatic aglycon. In general, these immediate tailoring enzymes function as ACHTUNGTRENNUNGindependent proteins, a feature that has facilitated the use of heterologous combinations of KRs and cyclases for the biosynthesis of new polyketides.[3]Pradimicin A (Scheme 1) is an aromatic polyketide biosynthesized by Actinomadura hibisca P157–2.[4] It contains a dihydrobenzo [α] naphthacenequinone core, derived from a dodecaketide backbone through five regioselective cyclizations. The carboxyl end of the polyketide at ring E is amidated with D-alanine, while the nonaromatic ring D is substituted with a disaccharide consisting of D-xylopyranose and 4-methylamino-4-de-
