mSphere of Influence: Synthetic Biology of Natural Product Biosynthesis

ABSTRACT Mark Walker studies the biosynthesis and engineering of bacterial natural products with the long-term goal of identifying new antibiotic compounds. In this mSphere of Influence, he reflects on how “Direct cloning and refactoring of a silent lipopeptide biosynthetic gene cluster yields the a...
