Figure 4. Discovery of the biosynthetic gene cluster for antibiotic S 213L in strain F-6133.
(a) The partial gene cluster determined by shotgun genome sequencing of strain F-6133. orf 12 NRPS contains peptides identified by LC-MS/MS and two PCR products from F-6133. Gene annotations were based on BLAST analysis. (b) SIC for m/z 799.39 detected in a culture supernatant from strain F-6133. The mass spectrum of the SIC peak is shown as an inset. Two masses separated by 52.9 Da (mass difference of Fe and 3 × H+) were shown, suggesting iron free and iron bound forms of the same species. (c) Structure of antibiotic S 213L. The labeled fragment ions were observed by tandem MS of the species at m/z 799.39.
