Bacterial signaling: new chemical keys to unlock the production of novel microbial antibiotics.

• Understanding the transcriptional regulation of antibiotic biosynthesis in actinomycete bacteria, from which more than 70% of clinically-approved antibiotics originate.
• Exploiting signaling molecules (microbial hormones) to induce production of novel antibiotics in the laboratory environment
