Biosynthetic Gene Cluster of Linaridin Peptides Contains Epimerase Gene
ChemBioChem, 2022AbstractSalinipeptins belong to the type‐A linaridin class of ribosomally synthesized and post‐translationally modified peptides (RiPPs) comprising 22 amino acid residues with multiple D‐amino acids. Although chirality of other type‐A linaridins, such as grisemycin and cypemycin, has not been reported, the biosynthetic gene clusters of type‐A ...

Phytochemistry, 2001
The function and properties of heterologously expressed full-length cDNA clones, isolated from a Taxus cDNA library and specific to Taxol biosynthesis, are summarized. Recombinant enzymes are described that catalyze early steps of the pathway, including taxadiene synthase, taxadien-5alpha-ol-O-acetyltransferase and taxadien-5alpha-yl acetate 10beta ...

Tryptophan Biosynthetic Genes in Eukaryotic Microorganisms
Annual Review of Microbiology, 1986In recent years more information about tryptophan biosynthesis in eukaryotic microorganisms has become available. The emphasis has been on genetics and biochemistry of the pathway. Eukaryotes manifest a trend toward fewer genes and toward multifunctional proteins, while prokaryotes have a greater tendency toward separate activity domains but the genes ...

Nat. Prod. Rep., 2011
Ergot alkaloids are toxins and important pharmaceuticals which are produced biotechnologically on an industrial scale. They have been identified in two orders of fungi and three families of higher plants. The most important producers are fungi of the genera Claviceps, Penicillium and Aspergillus (all belonging to the Ascomycota).

Glucosinolate biosynthetic genes in Brassica rapa
Gene, 2011Glucosinolates (GS) are a group of amino acid-derived secondary metabolites found throughout the Cruciferae family. Glucosinolates and their degradation products play important roles in pathogen and insect interactions, as well as in human health. In order to elucidate the glucosinolate biosynthetic pathway in Brassica rapa, we conducted comparative ...

Targeting Trichothecene Biosynthetic Genes
2016Biosynthesis of trichothecenes requires the involvement of at least 15 genes, most of which have been targeted for PCR. Qualitative PCRs are used to assign chemotypes to individual isolates, e.g., the capacity to produce type A and/or type B trichothecenes. Many regions in the core cluster (consisting of 12 genes) including intergenic regions have been

Targeting Ochratoxin Biosynthetic Genes
2016The pathway of ochratoxin A (OTA) biosynthesis has not yet been completely elucidated. Essentially, two kind of genes have been demonstrated to be involved in the biosynthesis of OTA. One of them is the nrps gene encoding a non-ribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) which catalyzes the ligation between the isocoumarin group, constituting the polyketide ...

Biosynthetic retrovectoring systems for gene therapy
Journal of Molecular Medicine, 1997Chemical and physical methods of introducing genes into cells (transfection) are being combined with viral transduction as one possible approach toward overcoming the shortcomings of current gene transfer methods. Although several different strategies are being developed worldwide, this article focuses on modification of retroviral vectoring systems ...

Targeting Aflatoxin Biosynthetic Genes
2016Chemical detoxification and physical destruction of aflatoxins in foods and feed commodities are mostly unattainable in a way that preserves the edibility of the food. Therefore, preventing mycotoxins in general and aflatoxins in particular from entering the food chain is a better approach.
