Abstract:
The present invention provides for a polyketide synthase (PKS) capable of synthesizing a carboxylic acid, said PKS comprising a synthetic or hybrid module. The present invention also provides for a host cell comprising the PKS and when cultured produces the carboxylic acid. In some embodiments, the carboxylic acid is adipic acid.
