Motivation: Precise identification of Biosynthetic Gene Clusters (BGCs) is a challenging task. Performance of BGC discovery tools is limited by their capacity to accurately predict components belonging to candidate BGCs, often overestimating cluster boundaries. To support optimizing the composition and boundaries of candidate BGCs, we pro ...

Fungal secondary metabolites (SMs) are an important source of numerous bioactive compounds largely applied in the pharmaceutical industry, as in the production of antibiotics and anticancer medications. The discovery of novel fungal SMs can potentially benefit human health. Identifying biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) involved in the biosynthesis of SMs ...
