The evolutionary emergence of complex multicellularity in bacteria and fungi, such as the ability for mycelial growth, is strongly associated with increased genomic carriage of biosynthetic machinery ...

In 2027 BIOPROSP joins forces with Functional Metagenomics, uniting marine bioprospecting and metagenomics experts to drive innovation, collaboration and scientific breakthroughs. We aim to translate ...

Nature - In Streptomyces spp., a conserved biosynthetic gene megacluster produces an arsenal of distinct antimicrobials that converge on bacterial biotin biosynthesis as a naturally evolved...

Covering literature to September 2025 This review provides a comprehensive account of the 217 natural product inspired antibiotics that have been approved for human use from 1943 through to September…

Covering: This review covers literature from 2015 to present.It is widely recognised that there is a significant gap between bacterial natural product potential and detected/described products. As suc...

Improved fractionation strategies can identify antibiotics with previously unseen scaffolds and mechanisms, exemplified by manikomycin from Streptomyces rimosus, which acts by targeting the E-site of the bacterial large ribosomal subunit.
