This entry represents a member of a biosynthetic gene cluster (BGC). This BGC (BGC0001580) is described by MIBiG as an example of the following biosynthetic class, polyketide, in particular the ebelactone biosynthetic gene cluster from Kitasatospora aburaviensis [1]. This family appears to be predominantly found in actinobacteria.
