“…This study highlighted the role marine animals may have in biomagnication of halogenated compounds in the trophic chain. 523 A study has compared the geographic and phylogenetic distribution of a cryptic Ribosomally synthesised and Posttranslationally modied Peptide (RiPP) halogenating enzyme in widespread sponge metagenomes across the Pacic and Atlantic oceans. More than 50 copies of BGCs encoding for RiPP halogenases across multiple bacterial taxa were detected in various sponge holobionts, highlighting the cosmopolitan nature of the BGC, which is at odds with the cryptic nature of the halogenated RiPPs they would produce.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
