Origin and True Nature of the Starter Unit for the Rapamycin Polyketide Synthase

15 Feb 2001

Abstract excerpt

Competition feeding experiments performed in vivo have identified 1 as the true starter unit for the rapamycin polyketide synthase, and indicate its potential application for generating novel analogues of this clinically important immunosuppresant molecule.
