Novel bioactive natural products from bacteria via bioprospecting, genome mining and metabolic engineering
4 Mar 2019
Abstract excerpt
For over seven decades, bacteria served as a valuable source of bioactive natural products some of which were eventually developed into drugs to treat infections, cancer and immune system-related diseases. Traditionally, novel compounds produced by bacteria were discovered via conventional bioprospecting based on isolation of potential producers and screening their extracts in a variety of bioassays. Over time,...
