Abstract excerpt
The fadD1 and macs1 genes of Streptomyces coelicolor are part of a two-gene operon. Both genes encode putative acyl coenzyme A synthetases (ACSs). The amino acid sequence of FadD1 has high homology with those of several ACSs, while MACS1 has the closest homology with medium-chain ACSs, broadly known as SA proteins. Like FadD of Escherichia coli, FadD1 also has a broad substrate specificity, although saturated...
