The structure of the monobactam-producing thioesterase domain of SulM forms a unique complex with the upstream carrier protein domain

K. D. Patel, R. A. Oliver, M. S. Lichstrahl, R. Li, C. A. Townsend, A. M. Gulick

The paper determines the structure of the thioesterase domain of SulM and its complex with the upstream carrier protein domain, revealing a constrained active site for β-lactam formation.

Conservation of a gene cluster reveals novel cercosporin biosynthetic mechanisms and extends production to the genus Colletotrichum

R. de Jonge, M. K. Ebert, C. R. Huitt-Roehl, P. Pal, J. C. Suttle, R. E. Spanner, J. D. Neubauer, W. M. Jurick, K. A. Stott, G. A. Secor, B. P. Thomma, Y. Van de Peer, C. A. Townsend, M. D. Bolton

The paper identifies a conserved gene cluster for cercosporin biosynthesis across multiple fungal pathogens, expands its known production to the genus Colletotrichum, and reveals additional genes critical for toxin synthesis.
