Brito A, Martins T, Freitas S, Castelo Branco R, Rego A, Vasconcelos V, et al.
J Nat Prod . 2025 Feb; PMID: 40009566
Recent analyses of genome data indicate that members of the cyanobacterial order Pleurocapsales show tremendous potential for natural product discovery. However, only a few compounds have been reported from this...

Girao M, Rego A, Fonseca A, Cao W, Jia Z, Urbatzka R, et al.
Microb Biotechnol . 2024 Dec; 17(12):e70058. PMID: 39692706
Actinomycetota are unrivalled producers of bioactive natural products, with strains living in association with macroalgae representing a prolific-yet largely unexplored-source of specialised chemicals. In this work, we have investigated the...

Zdouc M, Blin K, Louwen N, Navarro J, Loureiro C, Bader C, et al.
Nucleic Acids Res . 2024 Dec; 53(D1):D678-D690. PMID: 39657789
Specialized or secondary metabolites are small molecules of biological origin, often showing potent biological activities with applications in agriculture, engineering and medicine. Usually, the biosynthesis of these natural products is...

Girao M, Lequint Z, Rego A, Costa I, Proenca D, Morais P, et al.
Int J Syst Evol Microbiol . 2024 Sep; 74(9). PMID: 39255017
Two novel actinomycetal strains, designated CC-R113 and CC-R104, were isolated from the tissues of two macroalgae collected on the northern Portuguese coast. Phylogenetic analyses based on the 16S rRNA gene...

Ribeiro M, Sousa L, Oliveira J, Pinto D, Batista L, Lobato L, et al.
Biomedicines . 2024 Mar; 12(3). PMID: 38540117
Introduction: SARS-CoV-2 infection usually presents similarly to other respiratory viral pathogens. Children and adolescents do not present as a group that is highly affected by the disease, having low infection...

Carneiro J, Pascoal F, Semedo M, Pratas D, Tomasino M, Rego A, et al.
Environ Res . 2023 May; 231(Pt 1):116040. PMID: 37150387
The monitoring of cities' wastewaters for the detection of potentially pathogenic viruses and bacteria has been considered a priority during the COVID-19 pandemic to monitor public health in urban environments....

Terlouw B, Blin K, Navarro-Munoz J, Avalon N, Chevrette M, Egbert S, et al.
Nucleic Acids Res . 2022 Nov; 51(D1):D603-D610. PMID: 36399496
With an ever-increasing amount of (meta)genomic data being deposited in sequence databases, (meta)genome mining for natural product biosynthetic pathways occupies a critical role in the discovery of novel pharmaceutical drugs,...

Hentschke G, Ramos V, Pinheiro A, Barreiro A, Costa M, Rego A, et al.
Int J Syst Evol Microbiol . 2022 Oct; 72(10). PMID: 36268793
The morphology, 16S rRNA gene phylogeny and 16S-23S rRNA gene ITS secondary structures of three strains of marine Cyanobacteria, isolated from inter- and subtidal environments from north Portugal were studied,...

Rego A, Fernandez-Guerra A, Duarte P, Assmy P, Leao P, Magalhaes C
Microb Genom . 2021 Dec; 7(12). PMID: 34904945
Polyketide synthases (PKSs) and non-ribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPSs) are mega enzymes responsible for the biosynthesis of a large fraction of natural products (NPs). Molecular markers for biosynthetic genes, such as...

Eusebio N, Rego A, Glasser N, Castelo-Branco R, Balskus E, Leao P
BMC Genomics . 2021 Aug; 22(1):633. PMID: 34461836
Background: Halogenation is a recurring feature in natural products, especially those from marine organisms. The selectivity with which halogenating enzymes act on their substrates renders halogenases interesting targets for biocatalyst...
