Pathogenesis of Chemical Leukoderma and Chemical‐Induced Vitiligo
ABSTRACT Leukoderma/vitiligo is a serious pigmentary disorder that notably impairs the patient's quality of life. In particular, chemical leukoderma (CL)/vitiligo refers to acquired depigmentation of the skin induced by exposure to certain chemicals. In this review, the term “CL” is defined as the temporary, localized loss of pigmentation at the site ...

Quinolones are valuable scaffolds for drug discovery but are rare in nature. Here, we show that two fungal enzymes, AthePKS and FerePKS, can generate 2‐quinolones and two additional heteroaromatic scaffolds. Using AthePKS, we designed an artificial enzymatic cascade towards an antimicrobial quinolone from a simple precursor and implemented it in E ...
