Metabolite Identification
Common NameBacillaene
DescriptionBacillaene is a polyene antibiotic belonging to the chemical class of natural products. Its biosynthetic pathway is encoded within the genomes of various Bacillus species, featuring gene clusters that also synthesize other antimicrobial compounds such as fengycin, surfactin, and difficidin. The genome of Bacillus velezensis NC-B4, for instance, includes a 3.93 Mb chromosome with a G+C content of 46.5%, harboring the bacillaene biosynthesis cluster alongside other key antimicrobial gene clusters (PMID:40964052 ). Additionally, the presence of bacillaene is confirmed through liquid chromatography time of flight mass spectrometry (LC-TOF/MS) analysis, which detects multiple lipopeptides including bacillaene and its analogs (PMID:40782405 ). The gene clusters associated with bacillaene show high similarity to known biosynthetic pathways, indicating a well-conserved mechanism for its production (PMID:40960612 ). Furthermore, the identification of bacillaene within the draft genome of Bacillus species underscores its role in antibacterial activity and potential applications in biological control (PMID:41011416 ). Overall, bacillaene exemplifies the intricate interplay of microbial biosynthetic pathways that contribute to the production of bioactive metabolites.
