A PKS is a "polyketide synthase" which is a type of enzyme that acts sequentially, like an assembly line to build large complex molecules. It is best visualized- there are some good videos on youtube with animations and figures showing how they work.
Yes, I read the article- polyketide synthase (PKS) is mentioned right in the title. What makes this finding novel is just how massive this PKS, named PKZILLA is compared to previously discovered ones.
