Discovery of Reactive Microbiota-Derived Metabolites that Inhibit Host Proteases

The gut microbiota modulate host biology in numerous ways, but little is known about the molecular mediators of these interactions. Previously, we found a widely distributed family of nonribosomal peptide synthetase gene clusters in gut bacteria. Here, by expressing a subset of these clusters in Esc...
