摘要
Combinatorial biosynthesis involves the genetic manipulation of natural product biosynthetic enzymes to produce potential new drug candidates that would otherwise be difficult to obtain. In either a theoretical or practical sense, the number of combinations possible from different types of natural product pathways ranges widely. Enzymes that have been the most amenable to this technology synthesize the polyketides, nonribosomal peptides, and hybrids of the two. The number of polyketide or peptide natural products theoretically possible is huge, but considerable work remains before these large numbers can be realized. Nevertheless, many analogs have been created by this technology, providing useful structure-activity relationship data and leading to a few compounds that may reach the clinic in the next few years. In this review the focus is on recent advances in our understanding of how different enzymes for natural product biosynthesis can be used successfully in this technology.
