Project Summary. This PhD studentship will be focused on the biomimetic total synthesis of complex natural products. The chemical feasibility of proposed biosynthetic pathways towards biologically active diterpene structures will be investigated. Read more
Polycyclic structures are ubiquitous in the natural product arena and are the core structural units of many natural product-based pharmaceuticals. Read more
Bacterial infections are becoming increasingly hard to treat with current antibiotics and it is well recognised that new treatments are required. Read more
Polyketide biosynthetic pathways generate vast numbers of diverse compounds that represent one of the largest collections of chemical structures with biological… Read more
Microorganisms from extreme environments such as the deep seas, cold seas and hyper arid deserts have been shown to produce a range of complex natural products with high biological activity. Read more
