The Transcriptional Architecture of Bacterial Biosynthetic Gene Clusters

open access: yesJournal of Natural Products
AbstractBacteria produce diverse bioactive metabolites with ecological and pharmaceutical importance. These compounds are synthesized by biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs), whose expression is tightly regulated. While many studies have examined the factors influencing BGC expression, including transcription factors (TFs) and environmental signals, the ...

Heterologous Expression of Novobiocin and Clorobiocin Biosynthetic Gene Clusters [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 2005
ABSTRACT A method was developed for the heterologous expression of biosynthetic gene clusters in different Streptomyces strains and for the modification of these clusters by single or multiple gene replacements or gene deletions with unprecedented speed and versatility.

Network divergence analysis identifies adaptive gene modules and two orthogonal vulnerability axes in pancreatic cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Tumors contain diverse cellular states whose behavior is shaped by context‐dependent gene coordination. By comparing gene–gene relationships across biological contexts, we identify adaptive transcriptional modules that reorganize into distinct vulnerability axes.

Microbiological and molecular insights on rare Actinobacteria harboring bioactive prospective

open access: yesBulletin of the National Research Centre, 2020
Background Actinobacteria is as a group of advanced filamentous bacteria. Rare Actinobacteria are of special interest as they are rarely isolated from the environments. They are a major source of important bioactive compounds.

Widespread occurrence of secondary lipid biosynthesis potential in microbial lineages. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Bacterial production of long-chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), such as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, 20:5n-3) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6n-3), is constrained to a narrow subset of marine γ-proteobacteria.

Diazaquinomycin Biosynthetic Gene Clusters from Marine and Freshwater Actinomycetes [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Natural Products, 2019
Tuberculosis is an infectious disease of global concern. Members of the diazaquinomycin (DAQ) class of natural products have shown potent and selective activity against drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis. However, poor solubility has prevented further development of this compound class.

Antibiofilm activity of a chionodracine‐derived peptide by NMR‐based metabolomics of cell‐free supernatant of Acinetobacter baumannii clinical strains

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
KHS‐Cnd peptide is able to impair biofilm formation and disaggregate mature biofilms in Acinetobacter baumannii clinical isolates. Differences in extracellular metabolites reflect changes in biofilm metabolism due to KHS‐Cnd treatment. Among the differentially represented extracellular metabolites upon KHS‐Cnd treatment, the significantly altered ...

Iron homeostasis disruption and lipid peroxidation in skeletal muscle during short‐term immobilization

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
14‐day casting‐induced immobilization reduced gastrocnemius muscle mass and increased non‐heme iron and ferritin heavy chain levels. Despite iron accumulation, transferrin receptor 1 and iron regulatory protein 2 were paradoxically upregulated. Lipid peroxidation was elevated without compensatory antioxidant responses.

Activation of an unconventional meroterpenoid gene cluster in Neosartorya glabra leads to the production of new berkeleyacetals

open access: yesActa Pharmaceutica Sinica B, 2018
Fungal genomes carry many gene clusters seemingly capable of natural products biosynthesis, yet most clusters remain cryptic or down-regulated. Genome mining revealed an unconventional paraherquonin-like meroterpenoid biosynthetic gene cluster in the ...
