The acyl carrier protein (ACP) is an indispensable component of both fatty acid and polyketide synthases and is primarily responsible for delivering acyl intermediates to enzymatic partners. At present, increasing numbers of multidomain ACPs have been discovered with roles in molecular recognition of trans-acting enzymatic partners as well as increasing metabolic flux. Further structural information is required to provide insight into their function, yet to date, the only high-resolution structure of this class to be determined is that of the doublet ACP (two continuous ACP domains) from mupirocin synthase. Here we report the solution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) structure of the doublet ACP domains from PigH (PigH ACP Show less
