Probing the Stereospecificity and Chemospecificity of Polyketide Thioesterases

Macrocyclization is a synthetically challenging step in the total synthesis of natural products. The success of chemical approaches such as the Corey-Nicolaou, Yamaguchi and Keck macrolactonization is heavily based on the confirmation and stereochemistry of the substrate. While there have been som...
