In silico exploration of Red Sea Bacillus genomes for natural product biosynthetic gene clusters

Abstract Background The increasing spectrum of multidrug-resistant bacteria is a major global public health concern, necessitating discovery of novel antimicrobial agents. Here, members of the genus Bacillus are investigated as a potentially attractive source of novel antibiotics due to their broad...
