Abstract:Myxobacteria are predatory bacteria with antimicrobial activity, utilizing complex mechanisms to kill their prey and assimilate their macromolecules. Having large genomes encoding hundreds of secondary metabolites, hydrolytic enzymes and antimicrobial peptides, these organisms are widely studied for their antibiotic potential. MyxoPortal is a comprehensive genomic database hosting 262 genomes of myxobacterial strains. Datasets included provide genome annotations with gene locations, functions, amino acids and … Show more
