Studies of the biosynthesis of the nitro sugar D-kijanose and the function of the glycosyltransferase helper proteins in glycosylation of macrolide antibiotics

The appended sugar residues of many natural products from Actinomyces are important for their biological activities. Many of these unusual sugar biosynthetic gene clusters have been isolated and many glycosyltransferases from various antibiotic-producing organisms have been identified. The increasin...
