Heterologous expression and antitumor activity analysis of syringolin from Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae B728a.

This present study is the first to report the heterologous expression of the entire syl gene cluster in Streptomyces strains and the successful expression of syringolin in both S. coelicolor M145 and S. lividans TK24. Syringolin derivatives demonstrated high cytotoxicity in vitro and in vivo. Hence, this paper provided an important foundation for the discovery and production of new antitumor compounds.
