Complete Biosynthetic Pathway of the Phosphonate Phosphonothrixin: Two Distinct Thiamine Diphosphate-Dependent Enzymes Divide the Work to Form a C–C Bond

Phosphonates often exhibit biological activities by mimicking the phosphates and carboxylates of biological molecules. The phosphonate phosphonothrixin (PTX), produced by the soil-dwelling bacterium Saccharothrix sp. ST-888, exhibits herbicidal activity. In this study, we propose a complete biosynth...
