Title:
BORRELIDIN-PRODUCING POLYKETIDE SYNTHASE AND ITS USE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2004058976
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the biosynthesis of polyketides and derives from the cloning of nucleic acids encoding a polyketide synthase and other associated proteins involved in the synthesis of the polyketide borrelidin. Materials and methods including enzyme systems, nucleic acids, vectors and cells are provided for the preparation of polyketides including borrelidin and analogues and derivatives thereof. Novel polyketide molecules are also provided.
