Abstract excerpt
Streptomyces clavuligerus is a species used worldwide to industrially produce clavulanic acid (CA), a molecule that enhances antibiotic effectiveness against β-lactamase-producing bacterial strains. Despite its low inherent CA production, hyper-producing strains have been developed. However, genomic analyses specific to S. clavuligerus and CA biosynthesis are limited. Genomic variations that may influence CA...
