Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Oxytetracycline which is derived from Streptomyces rimosus, inhibits a wide range of bacteria and is industrially important. The underlying biosynthetic processes are complex and hinder rational engineering, so industrial manufacturing currently relies on classical mutants for production. While the biochemistry underlying oxytetracycline synthesis is known to involve polyketide synthase,...
