Diversity and biosynthetic potential of culturable microbes associated with toxic marine animals [PDF]
, 2013 Tetrodotoxin (TTX) is a neurotoxin that has been reported from taxonomically diverse organisms across 14 different phyla. The biogenic origin of tetrodotoxin is still disputed, however, TTX biosynthesis by host-associated bacteria has been reported.

Trisoxazole Macrolides Potentiate the Microtubule Assembly and Antimitotic Activities of Taxanes
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Photoaffinity experiments identified tubulin as a new target of mycalolides. Though weakly cytotoxic, the trisoxazole macrolactone moiety enhanced paclitaxel's microtubule assembly and antimitotic effects. Molecular modeling studies suggested that MyC stabilizes α/β‐tubulin heterodimer interactions.

Gating mechanism of elongating β-ketoacyl-ACP synthases. [PDF]
, 2020 Carbon-carbon bond forming reactions are essential transformations in natural product biosynthesis. During de novo fatty acid and polyketide biosynthesis, β-ketoacyl-acyl carrier protein (ACP) synthases (KS), catalyze this process via a decarboxylative ...

Deciphering the Anti-Aflatoxinogenic Properties of Eugenol Using a Large-Scale q-PCR Approach [PDF]
, 2016 Produced by several species of Aspergillus, Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is a carcinogenic mycotoxin contaminating many crops worldwide. The utilization of fungicides is currently one of the most common methods; nevertheless, their use is not environmentally or ...
