New preprint on bioRxiv from my lab:
How can a single bacterial sRNA coordinate very different competitive strategies?
We show that ArcZ acts as a regulatory hub controlling both antibacterial and antifungal activities in Dickeya solani.

Are #lichens truly a treasure chest of #naturalproducts compared to non-lichenized #fungi? We put this to test using #BGC count as a proxy across ~400 #genomes.

Spoiler alert: They absolutely are!

Asking #naturalproduct #metabolite people - Is there a tool to predict MS/MS spectra of macrolides? I guess Sirius can be used to predict structure from MS/MS ...any directions would be helpful #massspec #secondarymetabolites
