Refactoring the Cryptic Streptophenazine Biosynthetic Gene Cluster Unites Phenazine, Polyketide, and Nonribosomal Peptide Biochemistry

open access: yesCell Chemical Biology, 2019
Summary The disconnect between the genomic prediction of secondary metabolite biosynthetic potential and the observed laboratory production profile of microorganisms is well-documented.

Comparative Genomics among Closely Related Streptomyces Strains Revealed Specialized Metabolite Biosynthetic Gene Cluster Diversity

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2018
Specialized metabolites are of great interest due to their possible industrial and clinical applications. The increasing number of antimicrobial resistant infectious agents is a major health threat and therefore, the discovery of chemical diversity and ...

Sequence analysis of porothramycin biosynthetic gene cluster [PDF]

open access: yesFolia Microbiologica, 2014
The biosynthetic gene cluster of porothramycin, a sequence-selective DNA alkylating compound, was identified in the genome of producing strain Streptomyces albus subsp. albus (ATCC 39897) and sequentially characterized. A 39.7 kb long DNA region contains 27 putative genes, 18 of them revealing high similarity with homologous genes from biosynthetic ...

A gene cluster of the ochratoxin A biosynthetic genes inPenicillium

Mycotoxin Research, 2006
A putative ochratoxin A (OTA) biosynthetic gene cluster inP. nordicum has been identified. The first part of the gene cluster is located on a DNA fragment of 10 kb in length and harbours three genes. A gene with high homology to an alkaline serine protease gene (accession number AY557343), which represents the upstream border of the cluster ...

Biosynthetic gene clusters for epipolythiodioxopiperazines in filamentous fungi

Mycological Research, 2008
Epipolythiodioxopiperazines (ETPs) are toxic secondary metabolites made only by fungi. Recent research efforts have provided insight into the molecular mechanisms of the toxicity of these compounds. The availability of complete genome sequences for many fungi has also facilitated the identification of putative ETP biosynthetic gene clusters. Expression

Biosynthetic Gene Clusters in Bacteria: A Review

Proceedings of the Pakistan Academy of Sciences: B. Life and Environmental Sciences, 2022
Soil is a nutrient-rich environment that harbors billions of microbial species. The diversity of microbes in an environment varies with the change in edaphic factors. To survive these environmental changes, microbes produce secondary metabolites which are not directly associated with their growth and reproduction. Bacterial genomes possess biosynthetic

Computational advances in biosynthetic gene cluster discovery and prediction.

Biotechnology Advances
Biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) are groups of clustered genes found in bacteria, fungi, and some plants and animals that are crucial for synthesizing secondary metabolites.

Cloning and Sequencing of the Chaetocin Biosynthetic Gene Cluster

ChemBioChem, 2013
How a fungus does it: The epidithiodiketopiperazine (ETP) fungal alkaloids, which include gliotoxin, have garnered much attention since their initial isolation. The cloning and sequencing of the biosynthetic gene cluster for another ETP, chaetocin A were used to suggest a route towards dimerization and sulfur incorporation in these molecules.
