Diversity of microbial products--discovery and application
1993
Porter, N. | Fox, F.M.
Natural products derived from micro-organisms, plants and animals possess inherent biological properties and are, therefore, an excellent source of lead chemicals on which to base synthesis programmes employing rational design techniques. Only a fraction of the fungal kingdom has been screened systematically for novel metabolites despite their suspected potential. Moreover, the fungi are generally manipulable in laboratory culture systems and, because of their developmental versatility, they offer tremendous potential as sources of novel metabolites. Primary assay systems based on biochemical targets provide an effective means of screening microbial products; such assay systems also efficiently support chemical purification of lead activities and rapid elucidation of new chemical templates.
