This study investigates the dual role of the Streptomyces-derived nucleoside Guvermectin (GV) in promoting plant growth and enhancing disease resistance. Multiomics analysis revealed that GV reprograms phenylalanine metabolism, leading to the accumulation of antimicrobial flavonoids. A key UDP-gl...
Enzymatic modification of DNA nucleobases can coordinate gene expression, nuclease protection or mutagenesis. We recently discovered a clade of phage-specific cytosine methyltransferase (MT) and 5-methylpyrimidine dioxygenase (5mYOX) enzymes that produce 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) as a precur...
