Minimum Information about a Biosynthetic Gene cluster.

Marnix H. Medema, +164 more
TL;DR: This work proposes the Minimum Information about a Biosynthetic Gene cluster (MIBiG) data standard, to facilitate consistent and systematic deposition and retrieval of data on biosynthetic gene clusters.
Journal ArticleDOI

Indolocarbazole natural products: occurrence, biosynthesis, and biological activity

TL;DR: The indolocarbazole family of natural products, including the biosynthetically related bisindolylmaleimides, is reviewed, with an emphasis on the development of analogs that have entered clinical trials for its future use against cancer or other diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antitumor Compounds from Marine Actinomycetes

TL;DR: Actinomycetes are the producers of a large number of natural products with different biological activities, including antitumor properties, and have attracted special attention in the last years for their ability to produce interesting pharmacological lead compounds.
Journal ArticleDOI

Improving production of bioactive secondary metabolites in actinomycetes by metabolic engineering.

TL;DR: In this review, the development of recombinant DNA technology has provided new tools for approaching yields improvement by means of genetic manipulation of biosynthetic pathways as applied to bioactive secondary metabolites produced by actinomycetes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Combinatorial biosynthesis of antitumor indolocarbazole compounds

TL;DR: A biological process based on combinatorial biosynthesis for the production of indolocarbazole compounds (or their precursors) in engineered microorganisms as a complementary approach to chemical synthesis is reported.
