Reassembly of the Biosynthetic Gene Cluster Enables High Epothilone Yield in Engineered Schlegelella brevitalea
30 Jun 2020
Abstract excerpt
Epothilones, as a new class of microtubule-stabilizing anticancer drugs, exhibit strong bioactivity against taxane-resistant cells and show clinical activity for the treatment of advanced breast cancer. Additionally, they also show great potential for a central nervous system injury and Alzheimer’s disease. However, due to the long fermentation period of the original producer and challenges of genetic engineering...
