摘要
Nonproducer mutants support the assumption that epothilones A and B are synthesized by the same polyketide synthase (PKS). The endproducts of the PKS, epothilones C and D, compete for the active site of a constitutively synthesized monooxygenase which is regulated by product inhibition. The postulated C-13 hydroxy-epothilones as direct precursors of epothilones C and D were not detected.
