Streptomyces silvensis produces nonribosomal peptides that act as antagonists of the human oxytocin and vasopressin receptors. Here, we present the genome sequence of S. silvensis ATCC 53525 and demonstrate that this organism possesses a number of additional biosynthetic gene clusters and might be a promising source for genome-guided drug discovery efforts.
森林链霉菌产生非核糖体肽,这些肽可作为人类催产素和加压素受体的拮抗剂。在此,我们展示了森林链霉菌ATCC 53525的基因组序列,并证明该生物体拥有许多额外的生物合成基因簇,可能是基因组导向药物发现研究的一个有前景的来源。
