Identification of essential genes for Escherichia coli aryl polyene biosynthesis and function in biofilm formation
Abstract Aryl polyenes (APEs) are specialized polyunsaturated carboxylic acids that were identified in silico as the product of the most widespread family of bacterial biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs). They are present in several Gram-negative host-associated bacteria, including multidrug-resistant...
