A genome-wide analysis of nonribosomal peptide synthetase gene clusters and their peptides in a <it>Planktothrix rubescens </it>strain

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Cyanobacteria often produce several different oligopeptides, with unknown biological functions, by nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPS). Although some cyanobacterial NRPS gene cluster types are well described, the entire NRPS geno...
