1. Polyketide synthesis (PKS) is a process by which many natural products such as macrolide antibiotics (e.g., erythromycin) are made. An important part of this process is the reduction of formed ketones to alcohols using a domain known as a keto-reductase. Keto-reductase catalyzes the delivery of hydride from NAD(P)H to the ketone. Provide a logical reaction mechanism using the arrow formalism. Enz Enz : нн .R Keto Reductase R HO N. HO- HO- NH2 CH3 0oC. ÑH ОН ОН

Taxol is a powerful anticancer agent that was first isolated from the bark of the Pacific yew tree (Taxus brevifolia) in 1967 The structure of Taxol, shown below wasn't elucidated until 1971. Taxol prevents tumor growth by inhibiting the division C cells, or mitosis, in some types of cancer cells; and in other types of cancer cells, it induces cell death. or apoptosis. Taxol is now commonly prescribed as a treatment for breast and ovarian cancers. What functional groups are NOT present in taxol? NH OH .0.... Taxol (paclitaxel) HO Select one: O a.
