Synthesis of phloroglucinols and α-pyrones catalyzed by PhlD from E. siliculosus. (A) PhlD utilizes three units of malonyl-CoA to form the simplest phloroglucinol; (B) PhlD also accepts longer acyl-CoAs such as lauryl-CoA (n = 9) or palmitoyl-CoA (n = 13) to form their respective tetraketide α-pyrone and tetraketide phloroglucinol.
