A role for antibiotic biosynthesis monooxygenase domain proteins in fidelity control during aromatic polyketide biosynthesis

Formicapyridines are similar to pentacyclic fasamycin and formicamycin aromatic polyketides but with a pyridine moiety. Here the authors rationally mutate the biosynthetic gene cluster to increase production and identify a non-catalytic role for the ABM superfamily of proteins.
