Mutasynthesis - uniting chemistry and genetics for drug discovery.

Kira J Weissman1.   

Abstract

Mutasynthesis couples the power of chemical synthesis with molecular biology to generate derivatives of medicinally valuable, natural products. Recently, this technique has been exploited by Cambridge-based biotech company Biotica Technology Ltd, and their collaborators, to generate promising new variants of the polyketide anti-cancer compounds rapamycin and borrelidin.
