Fungal secondary metabolites (SMs) represent a vast reservoir of bioactive compounds with immense therapeutic, agricultural, and industrial potential. These small molecules, including antibiotics, immunosuppressants, and anticancer agents, are synthe...
Streptomyces albidoflavus is a widely used strain for natural product discovery and production through heterologous biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs). However, the transcriptional regulatory network (TRN) and its impact on secondary metabolism remain...

The sluggish pace of new antibacterial drug development reflects a vulnerability in the face of the current severe threat posed by bacterial resistance. Microbial natural products (NPs), as a reservoir of immense chemical potential, have emerged as t...
Streptomyces produces diverse secondary metabolites of biopharmaceutical importance, yet the rate of biosynthesis of these metabolites is often hampered by complex transcriptional regulation. Therefore, a fundamental understanding of transcriptional ...
Biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) in bacterial genomes code for important small molecules and secondary metabolites. Based on the validated BGCs and the corresponding sequences of protein family domains (Pfams), Pfam functions and clan information, w...
The cryptic secondary metabolite biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) far outnumber currently known secondary metabolites. Heterologous production of secondary metabolite BGCs in suitable chassis facilitates yield improvement and discovery of new-to-nat...
Hb S/Hb E (: c.20A>T/: c.79G>A) is an uncommon variant of sickle cell disease resulting from coinheritance of Hb S and Hb E. Clinico-hematological and biochemical parameters of 35 cases of Hb S/Hb E disease were studied and compared with 70 matched c...
Machine learning is one of the most potential ways to realize the function prediction of the incremental large-scale G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCR). Prior research reveals that the key to determining the overall classification accuracy of GPCR is...

Endometriosis is major gynecological disease that affects over 10% of women worldwide and 30%-50% of these women have pelvic pain, abnormal uterine bleeding and infertility. The cause of endometriosis is unknown and there is no definite cure mainly b...
Knowledge of genes that are critical to a tissue's function remains difficult to ascertain and presents a major bottleneck toward a mechanistic understanding of genotype-phenotype links. Here, we present the first machine learning model-FUGUE-combini...
