Downsizing class II lasso peptides: genome mining-guided isolation of huascopeptin containing the first ...

Cortés Albayay, Carlos; Jarmusch, Scott A.; Trusch, Franziska; Ebel, Rainer; Andrews Farrow, Bárbara; Jaspars, Marcel; Asenjo, Juan (American Chemical Society, 2020)

A new lasso peptide, huascopeptin, was isolated following genome-mined discovery of a new biosynthetic gene cluster in extremotolerant Streptomyces huasconensis HST28(T) from Salar de Huasco, Atacama Desert, Chile. Compound ...

Geodermatophilus chilensis sp. nov., from soil of the Yungay core-region of the Atacama Desert, Chile

Castro, Jean; Nouioui, Imen; Sangal, Vartul; Trujillo, Martha; Montero-Calasanz, Maria del Carmen; Rahmani, Tara; Bull, Alan; Asenjo, Juan; Andrews, Barbara; Goodfellow, Michael (Elsevier GmbH, 2018)

A polyphasic study was undertaken to establish the taxonomic status of three representative Geodermatophilus strains isolated from an extreme hyper-arid Atacama Desert soil. The strains, isolates B12T, B20 and B25, were ...

Hunting for cultivable Micromonospora strains in soils of the Atacama Desert

Carro, Lorena; Razmilic, Valeria; Nouioui, Imen; Richardson, Lee; Pan, Che; Golinska, Patrycja; Asenjo, Juan; Bull, Alan; Klenk, Hans; Goodfellow, Michael (Springer Netherlands, 2018)

Innovative procedures were used to selectively isolate small numbers of Micromonospora strains from extreme hyper-arid and high altitude Atacama Desert soils. Micromonosporae were recognised on isolation plates by their ...

Metabolic modelling and flux analysis of microorganisms from the Atacama Desert used in biotechnological processes

Razmilic, Valeria; Castro, Jean; Marchant, Francisca; Asenjo, Juan; Andrews, Barbara (Springer Netherlands, 2018)

Metabolic modelling is a useful tool that enables the rational design of metabolic engineering experiments and the study of the unique capabilities of biotechnologically important microorganisms. The extreme abiotic ...

Nucleotide sequence of a 13-1,3-glucanase Isoenzyme II(A) gene of Oerskovia xanthineolytica LL G109 ...

Ferrer, Pau; Halkier, Torben; Hedegaard, Lisbeth; Savva, Demetris; Diers, Iván; Asenjo, Juan A. (1996)

The nucleotide sequence of the βgIII(A) gene, encoding the extracellular β-1,3-glucanase II(A) (βgIII(A)) of the yeast-lytic actinomycete Oerskovia xanthineolytica LL G109, was determined. Sequence comparison shows that ...

Use of genome-scale models to get new insights into the marine actinomycete genus Salinispora

Contador, Carolina A.; Rodríguez, Vida; Andrews, Barbara A.; Asenjo, Juan A. (BioMed Central Ltd., 2019)

Background: There is little published regarding metabolism of Salinispora species. In continuation with efforts performed towards this goal, this study is focused on new insights into the metabolism of the three-identified ...
