Characterization of the xiamenmycin biosynthesis gene cluster in Streptomyces xiamenensis 318. [PDF]
Xiamenmycin (1) is a prenylated benzopyran derivative with anti-fibrotic activity. To investigate the genetic basis of xiamenmycin biosynthesis, we performed genome mining in the xiamenmycin-producing Streptomyces xiamenensis wild-type strain 318 to ...

Dynamical modelling of secondary metabolism and metabolic switches in Streptomyces xiamenensis 318 [PDF]
The production of secondary metabolites, while important for bioengineering purposes, presents a paradox in itself. Though widely existing in plants and bacteria, they have no definite physiological roles.

A Novel AdpA Homologue Negatively Regulates Morphological Differentiation in Streptomyces xiamenensis 318. [PDF]
AdpA is a key regulator of secondary metabolism and morphological differentiation inStreptomycesspecies. However, AdpA had not been reported to negatively regulate morphological differentiation. Here, we characterized the regulatory role of AdpASxinStreptomyces xiamenensis318, which has a naturally streamlined genome.

Deciphering the streamlined genome of Streptomyces xiamenensis 318 as the producer of the anti-fibrotic drug candidate xiamenmycin. [PDF]
AbstractStreptomyces xiamenensis 318, a moderate halophile isolated from a mangrove sediment, produces the anti-fibrotic compound xiamenmycin. The whole genome sequence of strain 318 was obtained through long-read single-molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing, high-throughput Illumina HiSeq and 454 pyrosequencing technologies.

Structural diversity of anti-pancreatic cancer capsimycins identified in mangrove-derived Streptomyces xiamenensis 318 and post-modification via a novel cytochrome P450 monooxygenase. [PDF]
AbstractPolycyclic tetramate macrolactams (PTMs) were identified as distinct secondary metabolites of the mangrove-derived Streptomyces xiamenensis 318. Together with three known compounds—ikarugamycin (1), capsimycin (2) and capsimycin B (3)—two new compounds, capsimycin C (4) with trans-diols and capsimycin D (5) with trans-configurations at C-13/C ...
