A biogenetic hypothesis for the adociasulfates. (A) A biosynthetic scheme summarizing the proposed biogenetic hypothesis for the origin of adociasulfates. (B) A hypothetical adociasulfate gene cluster was constructed based on the most probable biosynthetic origin, as addressed in this review. In this scenario, the pathway is assumed to be part of a bacterial genome. Black genes represent those directly involved in biosynthesis, white genes are those indirectly involved in biosynthesis, and those bordered with a dashed line have the potential to be entirely absent from the cluster.
