both long-chain fatty acyl-CoA substrates. This flexibility, along with the characterization of catalytic residues, benefits our investigations into the individual roles of the two KAS-III homologues in the heterodimer-catalyzed reactions. The large subunit LstA contains a characteristic Cys-His-Asn triad and likely reacts with C8 acyl-CoA to form an acyl-Cys enzyme intermediate. In contrast, the small
