A comparative genomics approach to understanding the biosynthesis of the sunscreen scytonemin in cyanobacteria
BACKGROUND: The extracellular sunscreen scytonemin is the most common and widespread indole-alkaloid among cyanobacteria. Previous research using the cyanobacterium Nostoc punctiforme ATCC 29133 revealed a unique 18-gene cluster (NpR1276 to NpR1259 in the N. punctiforme genome) involved in the biosy...
