Discovery of 16-Demethylrifamycins by Removing the Predominant Polyketide Biosynthesis Pathway in Micromonospora sp. Strain TP-A0468
10 Dec 2018
Abstract excerpt
Natural products are essential in the development of novel clinically used drugs. Discovering new natural products and modifying known compounds are still the two main ways to generate new candidates. Here, we have discovered several rifamycins with varied skeleton structures by redirecting the metabolic flux from the predominant polyketide biosynthetic pathway to the rifamycin pathway in the marine actinomycetes...
