RhlA Converts β-Hydroxyacyl-Acyl Carrier Protein Intermediates in Fatty Acid Synthesis to the β-Hydroxydecanoyl-β-Hydroxydecanoate Component of Rhamnolipids in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Pseudomonas aeruginosa secretes a rhamnolipid (RL) surfactant that functions in hydrophobic nutrient uptake, swarming motility, and pathogenesis. We show that RhlA supplies the acyl moieties for RL biosynthesis by competing with the enzymes of the type II fatty acid synthase (FASII) cycle for the β-...
