Cyclopropanol Warhead in Malleicyprol Confers Virulence of Human‐ and Animal‐Pathogenic Burkholderia Species
29 Jul 2019
Abstract excerpt
Burkholderia species such as B. mallei and B. pseudomallei are bacterial pathogens causing fatal infections in humans and animals (glanders and melioidosis), yet knowledge on their virulence factors is limited. While pathogenic effects have been linked to a highly conserved gene locus (bur/mal) in the B. mallei group, the metabolite associated to the encoded polyketide synthase, burkholderic acid (syn....
