  • Patent number: 10047363
    Abstract: A nucleic acid molecule comprises a nucleotide sequence: as shown in SEQ ID No. 1, which is the complement of SEQ ID No. 1, which is degenerate with SEQ ID No. 1, or which has at least 85% sequence identity with SEQ ID No. 1, or which is a part of such a sequence. The nucleic acid molecule encodes or is a complementary to a nucleic acid molecule encoding one or more polypeptides, or comprises or is complementary to a nucleic acid molecule comprising one or more genetic elements, having functional activity in the synthesis of a polyketide-based or macrolactam molecule. The nucleic acid molecule may be used to prepare a modified BE-14106 biosynthetic gene cluster for the preparation of a modified BE-14106 molecule.

  • Publication number: 20130130312
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a new strain of Micrococcus luteus, named Otnes7, which is superior to known strains in its ability to synthesise the carotenoid sarcinaxanthin and a method of producing sarcinaxanthin or a derivative thereof, said method comprising introducing into and expressing in a host cell one or more nucleic acid molecules encoding an activity in the sarcinaxanthin biosynthetic pathway.
