Streptomyces species continue to attract attention as a source of novel medicinal
compounds. Despite a long history of studies on these microorganisms, they still have many …

Pharmaceutically important polyketides such as avermectin are mainly produced as
secondary metabolites during the stationary phase of growth of Streptomyces species in …

Gram negative bacteria as well as Gram positive actinobacteria possess the ability to
accumulate variable amounts of wax esters (WE) and/or triacylglycerols (TAG) under …

To verify the function of malic enzyme (ME1), the ME1 gene was endogenously
overexpressed in Phaeodactylum tricornutum. Overexpression of ME1 increased neutral …

Biofilms are ubiquitous in nature, forming diverse adherent microbial communities that
perform a plethora of functions. Here we operated two laboratory‐scale sequencing batch …

Most currently used antibiotics originate from Streptomycetes and phosphate limitation is an
important trigger of their biosynthesis. Understanding the molecular processes underpinning …

Members of the soil‐dwelling prokaryotic genus S treptomyces are indispensable for the
recycling of complex polysaccharides, and produce a wide range of natural products …

Aurantiochytrium is an important docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) producer containing two
kinds of fatty acid synthesis pathways, that is, the fatty acid synthase pathway (FAS) for …

Many biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) require heterologous expression to realize their
genetic potential, including silent and metagenomic BGCs. Although the engineered …
