TY - T1 - Genetic and Chemical Diversity of Mycosporine-Like Amino Acids and Glycosylated Variants in Cyanobacteria SN - / UR - URN:NBN:fi:hulib-201906122707; http://hdl.handle.net/10138/303039 T3 - A1 - Arsin, Sila A2 - PB - Helsingin yliopisto Y1 - 2019 LA - eng AB - Mycosporines and mycosporine-like amino acids (MAAs) are small-molecules that provide UV protection in a broad range of organisms. Cyanobacteria produce a diverse set of MAA chemical variants, many of which are glycosylated. Even though the biosynthetic pathway for the production of a common cyanobacterial MAA, shinorine, is known, the biosynthetic origins of the glycosylated variants remains unclear. In this work, bioinformatics analyses were performed to catalogue the genetic diversity encoded...
