Summary
Chain Elongation Enzymes
are crucial in
Biosynthetic Pathways
, facilitating the
Extension of carbon chains
by
Catalyzing the addition of specific monomers
. These enzymes play a vital role in the
Production of complex molecules
such as
Fatty Acids
, polyketides, and
Non-ribosomal peptides
, impacting both
Biological Functions
and
Industrial Applications
.
