Identification of a novel sesquiterpene biosynthetic machinery involved in astellolide biosynthesis

Esterified drimane-type sesquiterpene lactones such as astellolides display various biological activities and are widely produced by plants and fungi. Given their low homology to known sesquiterpene cyclases, the genes responsible for their biosynthesis have not been uncovered yet. Here, we identifi...
