DESCRIPTION:Recent advances in genomics and metabolomics have ushered in a 
 new era in natural products research linking genes to molecules. Synthetic
  biology programs now offer streamlined approaches to the discovery\, prod
 uction\, and design of gene-encoded small molecules. While most research p
 rogress has been achieved with bacteria and fungi due to their compact gen
 omes and clustered genes for biosynthesis\, recent success has extended to
  medicinally important land plants\, thereby showcasing the fascinating bi
 osynthetic potential of complex organisms. Marine microalgae and macroalga
 e\, on the other hand\, represent an untapped biosynthetic resource despit
 e their global importance and environmental significance. This presentatio
 n will highlight recent progress in the genomics-guided interrogation of h
 armful algal bloom Pseudo-nitzschia diatoms that produce the devastating n
 eurotoxin domoic acid. The discovery and application of new biosynthetic e
 nzymes from diatoms will be discussed.\n
