Multiple adaptations to polar and alpine environments within cyanobacteria: a phylogenomic and Bayesian approach.

abstract：:Asperphenamate is a small peptide natural product that has gained much interest due to its antitumor activity. In the recent years numerous bioactive synthetic asperphenamate analogs have been reported, whereas only a handful of natural analogs either of microbial or plant origin has been discovered. Herein we describ...
