The biosynthetic pathway to tetromadurin (SF2487/A80577), a polyether tetronate antibiotic
The type I polyketide SF2487/A80577 (herein referred to as tetromadurin) is a polyether tetronate ionophore antibiotic produced by the terrestrial Gram-positive bacterium Actinomadura verrucosospora.

Heterologous expression of the diazaquinomycin biosynthetic gene cluster [PDF]
Abstract Members of the diazaquinomycin class of natural products have shown potent and selective activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. However, poor aqueous solubility has prevented extensive studies in animal models thus far. Our long-term goal is to harness knowledge regarding diazaquinomycin biosynthesis towards the generation

Identification and analysis of the resorcinomycin biosynthetic gene cluster [PDF]
Abstract Resorcinomycin (1) is composed of a nonproteinogenic amino acid, (S)-2-(3,5-dihydroxy-4-isopropylphenyl)-2-guanidinoacetic acid (2), and glycine. A biosynthetic gene cluster was identified in a genome database of Streptoverticillium roseoverticillatum by searching for orthologs of the genes responsible for biosynthesis of ...

Cloning and characterization of the biosynthetic gene cluster for kutznerides [PDF]
Kutznerides, actinomycete-derived cyclic depsipetides, consist of six nonproteinogenic residues, including a highly oxygenated tricyclic hexahydropyrroloindole, a chlorinated piperazic acid, 2-(1-methylcyclopropyl)-glycine, a β-branched-hydroxy acid, and 3-hydroxy glutamic acid, for which biosynthetic logic has not been elucidated.

The erythromycin biosynthetic gene cluster of Aeromicrobium erythreum
The erythromycin-biosynthetic (ery) gene cluster of Aeromicrobium erythreum was cloned and characterized. The 55.4-kb cluster contains 25 ery genes. Homologues were found for each gene in the previously characterized ery gene cluster from Saccharopolyspora erythraea. In addition, four new predicted ery genes were identified.

Biosynthetic gene clusters and the evolution of fungal chemodiversity
This highlight synthesizes knowledge of the molecular evolutionary processes – functional divergence, horizontal transfer, and de novo assembly – that govern biosynthetic gene cluster diversification and the generation of chemodiversity in fungi.
