The Fumagillin Biosynthetic Gene Cluster in <i>Aspergillus fumigatus</i> Encodes a Cryptic Terpene Cyclase Involved in the Formation of β-<i>trans</i>-Bergamotene

14 Mar 2013

Abstract excerpt

Fumagillin 1 is a meroterpenoid from Aspergillus fumigatus that is known for its anti-angiogenic activity by binding to human methionine aminopeptidase 2. The genetic and molecular basis for biosynthesis of 1 had been an enigma despite the availability of the A. fumigatus genome sequence. Here, we report the identification and verification of the fma gene cluster, followed by characterization of the polyketide...
