From spelunking to new #antibiotic discovery! Fantastic work in collaboration with HEDERA-22. Lunaemycins, first new bioactive molecules found from cave moonmilk-dwelling #Streptomyces. See our work at lnkd.in/egHScnTx. @Strep_papers @saveantibiotics
Very excited to share our latest work published in mBio showing that Strepto can use glucose from any plant heteroside thanks to a unique 'swiss army knife' enzyme! DOI: 10.1128/mbio.00935-22
