Polyketide synthesis genes associated with toxin production in two species of Gambierdiscus (Dinophyceae)
BACKGROUND: Marine microbial protists, in particular, dinoflagellates, produce polyketide toxins with ecosystem-wide and human health impacts. Species of Gambierdiscus produce the polyether ladder compounds ciguatoxins and maitotoxins, which can lead to ciguatera fish poisoning, a serious human illn...
