The predominance of nucleotidyl activation in bacterial phosphonate biosynthesis

The predominance of nucleotidyl activation in bacterial phosphonate biosynthesis

Phosphonate modifications can be present on microbial cell surfaces. Here the authors perform bioinformatics analyses and observe a widespread occurrence of nucleotidyltransferase-encoding genes in bacterial phosphonate biosynthesis and functionally characterize two of the identified phosphonate spe...
