Novel polyoxins generated by heterologously expressing polyoxin biosynthetic gene cluster in the <it>sanN</it> inactivated mutant of <it>Streptomyces ansochromogenes</it>

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Polyoxins are potent inhibitors of chitin synthetases in fungi and insects. The gene cluster responsible for biosynthesis of polyoxins has been cloned and sequenced from <it>Streptomyces cacaoi</it> and tens of polyoxin a...
