Genomic Assemblies of Members of Burkholderia and Related Genera as a Resource for Natural Product Discovery.

Abstract

The genomes of 450 members of Burkholderiaceae, isolated from clinical and environmental sources, were sequenced and assembled as a resource for genome mining. Genomic analysis of the collection has enabled the identification of multiple metabolites and their biosynthetic gene clusters, including the antibiotics gladiolin, icosalide A, enacyloxin, and cepacin A
