What is the function of this protein?
Involved in the biosynthesis of mycolic acids (PubMed:19436070, PubMed:23770708, PubMed:25467124).  Forms, with FadD32, the initiation module of the mycolic condensation system (PubMed:19436070, PubMed:19477415, PubMed:25467124).  Synthesizes, in coupled reaction with FadD32, the biosynthetic precursors of mycolic acids, alpha-alkyl beta-ketoacids, via the condensation of two long chain fatty acid derivatives, a very long meromycoloyl-AMP and a shorter 2-carboxyacyl-CoA (PubMed:19436070, PubMed:25467124).  The acyl chain of the acyl-AMP produced by FadD32 is specifically transferred onto the N-terminal ACP domain of Pks13, and then transferred onto the KS domain.  The extender unit carboxyacyl-CoA is specifically loaded onto the AT domain, which catalyzes the covalent attachment of the carboxyacyl chain to its active site, and its subsequent transfer onto the P-pant arm of the C-terminal ACP domain.  The KS domain catalyzes the condensation between the two loaded fatty acyl chains to produce an alpha-alkyl beta-ketothioester linked to the C-ACP domain (PubMed:19436070).  Then, the thioesterase-like domain acts as a transacylase and is responsible for both the release and the transfer of the alpha-alkyl beta-ketoacyl chain onto a polyol acceptor molecule, particularly trehalose, leading to the formation of the trehalose monomycolate precursor (PubMed:25467124).
What are the official names of this protein?
