Recent Advances in Silent Gene Cluster Activation in Streptomyces
Natural products (NPs) are critical sources of drug molecules for decades. About two-thirds of natural antibiotics are produced by Streptomyces. Streptomyces have a large number of secondary metabolite biosynthetic gene clusters (SM-BGCs) that may encode NPs. However, most of these BGCs are silent u...
