Natural products continue to provide important chemical scaffolds for the development of pharmaceutical drugs. Prospecting understudied organisms and utilizing orthogonal approaches are strategies that can be integrated to improve natural product discovery. Cyanobacteria are photosynthetic prokaryotes known to produce secondary metabolites with biological activity. Nonetheless, the chemis…
Natural products are an important source of pharmaceuticals and chemical probes. The discovery of new natural products is challenged by the inherent complexity of biological extracts and by the increasing rates of rediscovery of known compounds. Expanding source diversity and improving chemical prospection approaches are critical to enhance the discovery of new natural products. Cyanobact…
Cyanobacteria produce several secondary metabolites, such as toxins and other natural products with antiviral, antifungal, algaecide, antioxidant, and antitumor properties. Previous studies have shown that extracts from Brazilian cyanobacteria that did not contain known toxins displayed biological activity in the brine shrimp assay. They included extracts from strains Calothrix sp. CCIBt3…
The production of secondary metabolites - or "natural products" - is energetically costly for microorganisms, so that the biosynthesis of many of these metabolites is inactive under standard laboratory culture conditions. Due to the importance of microbial natural products in prospecting new molecules with therapeutic potential, it is relevant to induce the biosynthesis of these metabolit…
Secondary metabolites represent an important source of molecules that inspire the discovery and development of pharmaceutical drugs. Yet, natural product discovery is a challenging process. Expanding source diversity and improving bioprospection approaches are critical to enhancing the identification of novel molecules. Cyanobacteria encompass a diverse phylum of microorganisms known to p…
