Modular polyketide synthase contains two reaction chambers that operate asynchronously

Type I modular polyketide synthases are homodimeric multidomain assembly line enzymes that synthesize a variety of polyketide natural products by performing polyketide chain extension and β-keto group modification reactions. We determined the 2.4-angstrom-resolution x-ray crystal structure and the 3.1-angstrom-resolution cryo–electron microscopy structure of the Lsd14 polyketide synthase, stalled at the transacylation and condensation steps, respectively. These structures revealed how the constituent domains are positioned relative to each other, how they rearrange depending on the step in the reaction cycle, and the specific interactions formed between the domains. Like the evolutionarily related mammalian fatty acid synthase, Lsd14 contains two reaction chambers, but only one chamber in Lsd14 has the full complement of catalytic domains, indicating that only one chamber produces the polyketide product at any given time.

DYnamic and Asynchronous Data Streamliner

DYAD aims to help sharing data files between producer and consumer job elements, especially between co-scheduled jobs or within an ensemble. DYAD provides the service by two components: a FLUX module and a I/O wraper set. DYAD transparently synchronizes file I/O between producer and consumer, and transfers data from the producer location to the consumer location managed by the service. Users only need to use the file path that is under the directory managed by the service.
