Abstract
Biothythetic pathway of the most drugable thiopeptide nocathiacin has been elucidated by applying reverse genetics method based on its structural features. The present study provides an efficient approach for an easy access to the biosynthetic gene clusters of complex bioactive peptides that are ribosomally synthesized with extensive posttranslational modifications.
