Abstract
The biotechnological potential of Planctomycetota only recently started to be unveiled. 129 reference genomes and 5194 available genomes (4988 metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs)) were analysed regarding the presence of Biosynthetic Gene Clusters (BGCs). By antiSMASH, 987 BGCs in the reference genomes and 22,841 BGCs in all the available genomes were detected. The classes Ca Uabimicrobiia, Ca Brocadiia and Planctomycetia had the higher number of BGC per genome, while Phycisphaerae had the lowest number. The most prevalent BGCs found in Planctomycetota reference genomes were terpenes, NRPS, type III PKS, type I PKS. As much as 88 % of the predicted regions had no similarity with known clusters in MIBiG database. This study strengthens the uniqueness of Planctomycetota for the isolation of new compounds and provide an overview of BGCs taxonomic distribution and of the type of predicted product. This outline allows the acceleration and focus of the research on drug discovery in Planctomycetota.
期刊介绍:
Genomics is a forum for describing the development of genome-scale technologies and their application to all areas of biological investigation.
As a journal that has evolved with the field that carries its name, Genomics focuses on the development and application of cutting-edge methods, addressing fundamental questions with potential interest to a wide audience. Our aim is to publish the highest quality research and to provide authors with rapid, fair and accurate review and publication of manuscripts falling within our scope.
