Microbial biodiscovery, Antibiotics, Anticancer, Silent metabolism, LipopolysaccharideAbstract
It is quite evident that microbial (bacteria or fungi) crude extracts contain several important bioactive compounds and some have already shown their therapeutic activity. Unfortunately, most of the compounds have not properly been evaluated for the exploration of new lead molecule. Moreover, some of the mechanisms of actions of few bioactive compounds have not been identified so far. Hence, extensive research is required to find out the activity of compounds in the microbial crude extracts and to exploit their therapeutic potential to unlock silent secondary metabolites. Therefore, this review article raise the importance of activating microbial secondary metabolites noting the need for new tools to access the full microbial genome.
