The present invention relates to a method of preparing a gene cluster construct including a plurality of genes encoding a multi-modular biosynthetic enzyme, the method including (A) a step of preparing a plurality of DNA fragments which are capable of reconstructing the gene cluster construct and have structures that can be ligated to each other and (B) a step of ligating the plurality of DNA fragments prepared in the step (A) to each other by mixing the plurality of DNA fragments in a solution to obtain the gene cluster construct.

The present disclosure provides proteins, nucleic acids, vectors, and host molecules useful for the production of compounds of interest, and methods for their use.
