Unmuting silent genes let bacteria produce molecules

CHICAGO-By enticing away the repressors dampening unexpressed silent genes in Streptomyces bacteria, researchers at the University of Illinois (UI) have unlocked several large gene clusters for new natural products. The researchers previously demonstrated a technique to activate small silent gene clusters using CRISPR technology. However, large ...
