KEGG   ENZYME: 2.3.1.221
Entry
EC 2.3.1.221                Enzyme                                 
Name
noranthrone synthase;
polyketide synthase A (ambiguous);
PksA (ambiguous);
norsolorinic acid anthrone synthase
Class
Transferases;
Acyltransferases;
Transferring groups other than aminoacyl groups
Sysname
malonyl-CoA:hexanoate malonyltransferase (norsolorinic acid anthrone-forming)
Reaction(IUBMB)
7 malonyl-CoA + hexanoyl-[acyl-carrier protein] = 7 CoA + norsolorinic acid anthrone + [acyl-carrier protein] + 7 CO2 + 2 H2O [RN:R10239]
Reaction(KEGG)
R10239
Substrate
malonyl-CoA [CPD:C00083];
hexanoyl-[acyl-carrier protein] [CPD:C05749]
Product
CoA [CPD:C00010];
norsolorinic acid anthrone [CPD:C20453];
[acyl-carrier protein] [CPD:C00229];
CO2 [CPD:C00011];
H2O [CPD:C00001]
Comment
A multi-domain polyketide synthase involved in the synthesis of aflatoxins in the fungus Aspergillus parasiticus. The hexanoyl starter unit is provided to the acyl-carrier protein (ACP) domain by a dedicated fungal fatty acid synthase [1].
