This entry represents a member of a biosynthetic gene cluster (BGC). This BGC (BGC0000387) is described by MIBiG as an example of the following biosynthetic class, NRP (non-ribosomal peptide). It includes a member from the mangotoxin biosynthetic gene cluster from Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae [1,2]. This family appears to be predominantly found in Proteobacteria.

1: A nonribosomal peptide synthetase gene (mgoA) of Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae is involved in mangotoxin biosynthesis and is required for full virulence. Arrebola E, Cazorla FM, Romero D, Perez-Garcia A, de Vicente A; Mol Plant Microbe Interact. 2007;20:500-509. PMID:17506328

2: The mbo operon is specific and essential for biosynthesis of mangotoxin in Pseudomonas syringae. Carrion VJ, Arrebola E, Cazorla FM, Murillo J, de Vicente A; PLoS One. 2012;7:e36709. PMID:22615797
