New Rimocidin/CE-108 Derivatives Obtained by a Crotonyl-CoA Carboxylase/Reductase Gene Disruption in Streptomyces diastaticus var. 108: Substrates for the Polyene Carboxamide Synthase PcsA. [PDF]
The rimJ gene, which codes for a crotonyl-CoA carboxylase/reductase, lies within the biosynthetic gene cluster for two polyketides belonging to the polyene macrolide group (CE-108 and rimocidin) produced by Streptomyces diastaticus var. 108.

Improvement of the thermal properties of pitch by waste plastic (polyvinyl chloride) addition
To modify the thermal properties of pitch by adding polyvinyl chloride (PVC), co-pyrolysis of PVC and coal tar pitch was performed. PVC decomposes into HCl and de-HCl PVC (polyene) above 200 °C, and these substances affect the synthesis behavior of coal ...

Orbital Optimization in the Density Matrix Renormalization Group, with applications to polyenes and \beta-carotene [PDF]
In previous work we have shown that the Density Matrix Renormalization Group (DMRG) enables near-exact calculations in active spaces much larger than are possible with traditional Complete Active Space algorithms.

New Glycosylated Polyene Macrolides: Refining the Ore from Genome Mining
Glycosylated polyene macrolides include effective antifungal agents, such as pimaricin, nystatin, candicidin, and amphotericin B. For the treatment of systemic mycoses, amphotericin B has been described as a gold-standard antibiotic because of its potent
