PROCEDURE FOR OBTAINING NON-RIBOSOMAL PEPTIDES BY HETEROLOGICAL EXPRESSION OF AT LEAST ONE NON-RIBOSOMAL PEPTIDE SYNTHETASE IN ASPERGILLUS NIGER

摘要

A method for obtaining at least one microbial secondary metabolite or a derivative thereof, the method includes the step of heterologous expression of at least one synthetase of the secondary metabolite in at least one filamentous fungus. Also disclosed is an expression cassette, a plasmid vector including the expression cassette, an expression host, novel cyclodepsipeptides and a chimeric cyclodepsipeptide synthetase.
