BGC, biosynthetic gene cluster; NRPS, non-ribosomal peptide synthase; PKS, polyketide synthase; hglE-KS, heterocyst glycolipid synthase-like PKS; RiPP, ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptide product. Only secondary metabolite regions showing similarity to a known biosynthetic cluster are shown. Similarity indicates the percentage of genes within the closest known compound that has a significant BLAST hit to genes within the current region (Blin et al. 2023).
