This entry represents a member of a biosynthetic gene cluster (BGC). This BGC (BGC0001063) is described by MIBiG as an example of the following biosynthetic classes, polyketide and NRP (non-ribosomal peptide). It includes a member from the undecylprodigiosin biosynthetic gene cluster from Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) [1,2]. This family appears to be predominantly present in bacteria.
