The soil metagenome – a rich resource for the discovery of novel natural products
Open accessAbstract
Soil microorganisms have been the most valuable source of natural products, providing industrially important antibiotics and biocatalysts. But, of late, the discovery rate of novel biomolecules using traditional cultivation techniques has been extremely low, as most soil microorganisms cannot be cultured in this way. The development of novel cultivation-dependent and molecular cultivation-independent approaches has paved the way for a new era of product recovery from soil microorganisms. In particular, gene-mining based on the construction and screening of complex libraries derived from the soil metagenome provides opportunities to fully explore and exploit the enormous genetic and metabolic diversity of soil microorganisms. This strategy has already resulted in the isolation of novel biocatalysts and bioactive molecules.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
