Description and Table of Contents

Description

The first review in this book presents synthetic strategies, biosynthesis and the genetics involved. The second review article, on non-template based multienzyme systems, addresses why polyketides are the most diverse group of natural products, comparing polyketide syntheses with other non-template multienzyme systems. The third review deals with angucycline antibiotics, the largest subgroup of polycyclic aromatic polyketides.

Table of Contents

Chemical and biochemical aspects of deoxysugars and deoxysugar oligosaccharides.- The chemistry and biology of fatty acid, polyketide, and nonribosomal peptide biosynthesis.- Angucyclines: Total syntheses, new structures, and biosynthetic studies of an emerging new class of antibiotics.
