DOI: 10.1021/acschembio.2c00163
Abstract: Natural drimane-type sesquiterpenes, including drimenol, display diverse biological activities. These active compounds are distributed in plants and fungi; however, their accumulation in bacteria remains unknown. Consequently, bacterial drimane-type sesquiterpene synthases remain to be characterized. Here,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fcimb.2022.1068000
Abstract: Tenacibaculosis occurs due to the marine bacterial pathogen Tenacibaculum maritimum. This ulcerative disease causes high mortalities for various marine fish species worldwide. Several external clinical signs can arise, including mouth erosion, epidermal ulcers, fin necrosis,… read more here.
