High Structural Diversity of Aeruginosins in Bloom-Forming Cyanobacteria of the Genus <i>Planktothrix</i> as a Consequence of Multiple Recombination Events
Many compounds produced by cyanobacteria act as serine protease inhibitors, such as the tetrapeptides aeruginosins (Aer), which are found widely distributed. The structural diversity of Aer is intriguingly high. However, the genetic basis of this remains elusive. In this study, we explored the genet...
