PLATENSIMYCIN BIOSYNTHETIC GENE CLUSTER OF STREPTOMYCES PLATENSIS

摘要

The present invention relates to the cloning and sequence of a biosynthetic gene cluster from Streptomyces platensis that produces platensimycin and platencin. Also provided are engineered micro-organisms for the production of these compounds, and analogs thereto, as well as methods of screening for compounds with anti-bacterial activity.
