TL;DR: The biosynthesis of a pyrazine that originates from an aldehyde‐generating minimal NRPS termed ATRed in entomopathogenic Xenorhabdus indica is revealed.

TL;DR: In this article, aryl polyene-containing lipids (APELs) from the entomopathogenic bacterium Xenorhabdus doucetiae were analyzed using a combination of isotope labeling, nuclear magnetic resonance techniques, and tandem mass spectrometry.

TL;DR: In this article , an evolution-inspired eXchange Unit between T domains (XUT) approach was developed which allows the assembly of NRPS fragments over a broad range of GC contents, protein similarities, and extender unit specificities.

TL;DR: Two new compounds, (Z,R)-1-phenylethylcinnamate and (1R,2R,3R,6S)-pipoxide were isolated from the aerial part of Piper hainanense, along with 12 known compounds, including nine benzene derivatives, one isobutylamide, and two polyoxygenated cyclohexene derivatives (13–14).

TL;DR: A comprehensive metabolic screening using HPLC-MS data associated with a 114-strain collection from across Thailand and utilizing machine learning in order to rank the importance of individual metabolites in determining all given metadata, leading to the identification of previously unknown compounds.
