Genomics for natural product discovery
The Natural Product Discovery Institute contains a set of more than 30 000 fungal and actinomycete organisms that can be used for natural product discovery. The natural product library contains purified compounds, partially purified column fractions, and crude extracts from natural product-producing organisms. The collection is available for screening. This site describes a roadmap for analysin...
متن کاملMicrobial genomics for the improvement of natural product discovery.
The quest for the discovery of novel natural products has entered a new chapter with the enormous wealth of genetic data that is now available. This information has been exploited by using whole-genome sequence mining to uncover cryptic pathways, or biosynthetic pathways for previously undetected metabolites. Alternatively, using known paradigms for secondary metabolite biosynthesis, genetic in...
متن کاملA Roadmap for Natural Product Discovery Based on Large-Scale Genomics and Metabolomics
Actinobacteria encode a wealth of natural product biosynthetic gene clusters, whose systematic study is complicated by numerous repetitive motifs. By combining several metrics, we developed a method for the global classification of these gene clusters into families (GCFs) and analyzed the biosynthetic capacity of Actinobacteria in 830 genome sequences, including 344 obtained for this project. T...
متن کاملGuiding principles for natural product drug discovery.
Natural products (NPs) have historically been a fertile source of new drugs for the pharmaceutical industry. However, this once-popular approach has waned considerably over the past two decades as the high-throughput screening of megalibraries comprised mainly of molecules with non-natural (synthetic) motifs has unfolded. Contemporary high-throughput screening libraries contain molecules compli...
متن کاملNucleophilic 1,4-Additions for Natural Product Discovery
Natural products remain an important source of drug candidates, but the difficulties inherent to traditional isolation, coupled with unacceptably high rates of compound rediscovery, limit the pace of natural product detection. Here we describe a reactivity-based screening method to rapidly identify exported bacterial metabolites that contain dehydrated amino acids (i.e., carbonyl- or imine-acti...
