Antibiotics from a molecular production line*

The presented innovation is a biotechnological basic technology for the production of pharmacological relevant active substances. This biotechnological "tool" for the production of complex, ring-shaped macromolecules makes it possible to produce pharmacological relevant active substances such as new antibiotics which otherwise have been won naturally or manufactured using complex chemical synthesis processes. This biotechnical "production line" enables rapid production of the required structual elements with high yields.
