Discovery and Biosynthesis of Nyuzenamides D and E by Genome Mining in Streptomyces hygroscopicus biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Discovery and Biosynthesis of Nyuzenamides D and E by Genome Mining in Streptomyces hygroscopicus

Nyuzenamides belong to the class of bioactive cinnamoyl moiety containing non-ribosomal peptides (NRPs). However, their biosynthetic gene cluster (BGC) remains unconfirmed. Genome-mining revealed a...

In honor of #WorldAnthropologyDay, learn more about how the spread of agriculture didn’t just change our diets—it altered our jaws as well, making it easy to pronounce "f"s and "v"s and opening a whole new world of words. scim.ag/5SZ @NewsfromScience

Ancient switch to soft food gave us an overbite—and the ability to pronounce ‘f’s and ‘v’s

How farming reshaped our smiles and our speech
