Synergistic gathering : Biochemical studies reveal a highly efficient strategy in biosynthesis to promote consecutive multienzyme reactions. In the curacin A pathway, catalytic efficiency of a multi‐step modification process and one‐step translocation is significantly enhanced by tandem organization and dimerization of the ACP 3 tridomain with an unexpected synergistic effect (see scheme).
