An enzymatic oxidation cascade converts δ-thiolactone anthracene to anthraquinone in the biosynthesis of anthraquinone-fused enediynes

Anthraquinone-fused enediynes are anticancer natural products featuring a DNA-intercalating anthraquinone moiety. Despite recent insights into anthraquinone-fused enediyne (AQE) biosynthesis, the enzymatic steps involved in anthraquinone biogenesis remain to be elucidated. Through a combination of i...
