Activation of Secondary Metabolite Gene Clusters in Streptomyces clavuligerus by the PimM Regulator of Streptomyces natalensis

Expression of non-native transcriptional activators may be a powerful general method to activate secondary metabolites biosynthetic pathways. PAS-LuxR regulators, whose archetype is PimM, activate the biosynthesis of polyene macrolide antifungals and other antibiotics, and have been shown to be func...
