  • Detection of modular polyketide synthase gene clusters
    Publication number: 20040209278
    Abstract: A PCR based method is provided by which DNA and cDNA of a polyketides-producing host can be rapidly queried to identify sequences of a target gene.
    Type: Application
    Filed: September 30, 2003
    Publication date: October 21, 2004
    Applicant: Kosan Biosciences, Inc.
    Inventors: Andreas Schirmer, Peter Revill
  • Production of polyketides
    Publication number: 20030235892
    Abstract: Recombinant host cells that comprise recombinant DNA expression vectors that drive expression of a product and a precursor for biosynthesis of that product can be used to produce useful products such as polyketides in host cells that do not naturally produce the product or produce the product at low levels due to the absence of the precursor or the presence of the precursor in rate limiting amounts.
    Type: Application
    Filed: June 27, 2003
    Publication date: December 25, 2003
    Inventors: Leonard Katz, Peter Revill
  • Heterologous production of 15-methyl-6-deoxyerthronolide B
