Characterization of the Cubamyces menziesii terpenome
ChemBioChem, Accepted Article.Long‐lasting polypore fungi are significant producers of terpene cyclases of high interest for medicinal or biotechnological applications. Following the 1,000 Fungal Genomes initiative launched by the Joint Genome Institute, we explored the genome of Cubamyces (C.) menziesii and identified eighteen genes encoding sesquiterpene cyclases. In a search for
