Comment
This polyketide synthase enzyme forms the (S)-2-methylbutanoate side chain during lovastatin biosynthesis by the filamentous fungus Aspergillus terreus. The overall reaction comprises a single condensation reaction followed by alpha-methylation, beta-ketoreduction, dehydration, and alpha,beta-enoyl reduction.
