Discovery and Biosynthesis of Bolagladins: Unusual Lipodepsipeptides from Burkholderia gladioli Clinical Isolates**
12 Aug 2020
Abstract excerpt
Two Burkholderia gladioli strains isolated from the lungs of cystic fibrosis patients were found to produce unusual lipodepsipeptides containing a unique citrate-derived fatty acid and a rare dehydro-β-alanine residue. The gene cluster responsible for their biosynthesis was identified by bioinformatics and insertional mutagenesis. In-frame deletions and enzyme activity assays were used to investigate the...
