  • Publication number: 20090130675
    Abstract: The invention relates to genes involved in the biosynthesis of thiocoraline and to the heterologous production of same. According to the invention, the cluster of genes responsible for the biosynthesis of thiocoraline was identified and cloned. Said cluster of genes can be used in the heterologous production of thiocoraline which has an antitumor and antibacterial activity.

  • Patent number: 7309601
    Abstract: rDNA corresponding to an endosymbiotic bacteria associated with Ecteinascidia turbinata has been identified. The bacterium appears to be responsible for the biosynthesis of ecteinascidin compounds. The 16S rDNA sequence corresponding to Candidatus Endoecteinascidia frumentensis SEQ ID NO: 1 has been deposited in GeneBank with the accession number AY054370.
