Identification and biosynthesis of xildivaline, a novel and widespread peptide deformylase inhibitor from Gammaproteobacteria
2025-06-07
Abstract excerpt
Xenorhabdus strains, Gram-negative bacteria pathogenic to insects and symbionts to nematodes of the genus Steinernema are prolific producers of various natural products. Here we describe the xisABCDE biosynthesis gene cluster from Xenorhabdus hominickii responsible for the production of xildivalines. These non-ribosomal peptide and polyketide hybrids act as peptide deformylase inhibitor (PDI) and occur also in...
