Metagenomic data reveals type I polyketide synthase distributions across biomes

ABSTRACT Microbial polyketide synthase (PKS) genes encode the biosynthesis of many biomedically or otherwise commercially important natural products. Despite extensive discovery efforts, metagenomic analyses suggest that only a small fraction of nature’s polyketide biosynthetic potential has been re...
