Genome Mining for Actinomycete Biosynthetic Gene Clusters
(2018-07-20)Whole-genome sequencing has shown that the large (8-12 Mbp) genomes of Streptomyces and allied genera of Gram-positive filamentous bacteria house a rich and previously underestimated repertoire of gene clusters for ... -
IDENTIFICATION OF THE ROLE OF [METHYL]GLUCURONIC ACID ON ARABINOGALACTAN POLYSACCHARIDES IN ARABIDOPSIS THALIANA
(2018-10-31)Arabinogalactan proteins (AGPs) are proteoglycans heavily substituted by arabinogalactan polysaccharides. These are composed of arabinose and galactose, and minor sugars such as glucuronic acid (GlcA), fucose and xylose. ... -
