Systems metabolic engineering of the primary and secondary metabolism of Streptomyces albidoflavus enhances production of the reverse antibiotic nybomycin against multi-resistant Staphylococcus aureus

Abstract excerpt

Nybomycin is an antibiotic compound with proven activity against multi-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, making it an interesting candidate for combating these globally threatening pathogens. For exploring its potential, sufficient amounts of nybomycin and its derivatives must be synthetized to fully study its effectiveness, safety profile, and clinical applications. As native isolates only accumulate low amounts...
