Cyclosporine Biosynthesis in Tolypocladium inflatum Benefits Fungal Adaptation to the Environment
The cyclopeptide cyclosporin A was first isolated from the filamentous fungus Tolypocladium inflatum showing antifungal activity and was later developed as an immunosuppressant drug. We report the biosynthetic mechanism of cyclosporines that are mediated by a cluster of genes encoding NRPS and PKS c...
