How many secondary metabolic pathways
are there in a single species?
What are they producing?
Do these closely related species
have orthologous pathway genes?
Automated annotation by sequencing institutes
makes gene finding much easier:
Multienzyme complexes like NRPS and PKS
have recognisable domains
Secondary metabolic pathway genes tend to be clustered

alb-1 (=wA)
• This cluster is not conserved in Ana/Aoa
• More like N. crassa melanin genes
• wA is in a conserved syntenic region in both species
• deletions do affect spore pigment colour
• pigment biosynthesis pathway may be different in Afu1
Any other orthologues amonst the PKS genes?
Phylogeny done by Resham Kulkani at TIGR
Using KS domain of PKS/Fatty Acid Synthase
wA/alb1 orthologues
PKS for aflatoxin in 2 species only
Possible orthologues amongst unknown PKS?
Hybrid PKS/NRPS
KS-AT-CON-AMP-PP
In all 3 species, but not really orthologues?
Conclusions
Few true orthologues across the genus Aspergillus
Each species has its own repertoire
Orthologues often found in less closely related species
Gene/product relationship requires functional analysis
in most cases
