“…They include promoter replacements in cis, overexpression of cluster-specific or global activators in trans, deletion of global regulators, interference with chromatin-based silencing or trans-expression of whole BGCs in a heterologous host and approaches based on the variation of cultivation conditions (i.e. "OSMAC") (Bode et al, 2002;Brakhage and Schroeckh, 2011;Chiang et al, 2010;Clevenger et al, 2017;Connolly et al, 2013;Gacek-Matthews et al, 2016;Gerke et al, 2012;Gerke and Braus, 2014;Hansen et al, 2015;Keller, 2019;Lyu et al, 2020;Niehaus et al, 2016b;Strauss and Reyes-Dominguez, 2011;Studt et al, 2016;Westphal et al, 2019;Wiemann et al, 2013;Wiemann et al, 2018). Promoter exchanges seem only feasible with small predicted clusters or clusters that harbour a clear candidate of BGC-specific transcription factor (TF) that can be overexpressed and converted to an active state.…”
