Phenazines are a class of secondary metabolites found in some microorganisms. These biomolecules are formed by nitrogen-containing aromatic rings, which can easily undergo oxidation-reduction reactions. This redox feature of phenazines will be explored in this project to develop zinc ion batteries. To do so, we propose here to produce a set of phenazines using a heterologous host. The gen…
Phenazines are secondary metabolites of some bacteria and archaea that have great structural diversity and high redox potential, making them valuable molecules for use in dyes, pharmaceuticals, biopesticides, and even batteries and other electrochemical devices. Their heterologous production in E. coli cells allows the production of different phenazines through the expression of genes cap…
The demand for natural dyes to replace synthetic analogs has been increasing due to the growing interest of society and industries in the development of sustainable processes. Among the natural dyes being studied for production by fermentation processes is indigotin, a secondary metabolite of intense blue color produced by some genera of bacteria. Indigoidine has great potential to replac…
Phenazines are a class of microbial secondary metabolites with applications in the production of biopesticides, the construction of biosensors, and drug development, among others. The chemical structure of these molecules is formed by nitrogenous aromatic rings, and their biosynthesis occurs from chorismate, the final product of the shikimate metabolic pathway. Metabolic engineering strat…
Xanthan gum is a polysaccharide produced by the Xanthomonas genus that has been used for industrial applications in different sectors, like food, cosmetics, and oil extraction, among others. Because there is no national production of this compound in Brazil, we depend on the importation of large amounts of this biopolymer. A key aspect of this process is the development of optimized strai…

Phenazines are a class of microbial secondary metabolites whose application covers diverse areas such as the production of biopesticides, construction of biosensors, drug development, among others. These molecules are formed by nitrogenous aromatic rings, and their biosynthesis occurs naturally in some species of Pseudomonas and Streptomyces, among others. In recent years, we have succeed…
The emergence of multi-resistant bacteria poses a serious health threat worldwide, and it has driven the search for new antimicrobial agents. In this context, some natural products from marine environments appear as promising antibiotic candidates, among which is korormicin. Although its mechanism of action has not yet been fully elucidated, it is already known that this compound is a pot…
