PPTase

PPTase from Aureobasidium pullulans EXF-150 is critical for post-translational modifications (PTMs) of PKS1. The conserved mechanism is that the PPTase transfers a 4'-phosphopantetheinyl (4'-PP) group from Coenzyme A (CoA) to a conserved serine in the acyl carrier (ACP) domains of polyketide synthases (PKS) (Sunbul et al., 2009).

This modification converts PKS1 from the inactive apo-form to the active holo-form, enabling them to participate in downstream reactions. The 4′-PP group acts as a flexible arm that facilitates the transport of acyl or aminoacyl intermediates between the active sites. Without PPTase, PKS1 would be hindered from maximum enzymatic activity (Venkitasubramanian et al., 2006; Xue et al., 2018).
