The Disorazole Z Family of Highly Potent Anticancer Natural Products from Sorangium cellulosum: Structure, Bioactivity, Biosynthesis, and Heterologous Expression

ABSTRACT Myxobacteria serve as a treasure trove of secondary metabolites. During our ongoing search for bioactive natural products, a novel subclass of disorazoles termed disorazole Z was discovered. Ten disorazole Z family members were purified from a large-scale fermentation of the myxobacterium S...
