abstract = {The halophilic marine-derived fungus Aspergillus ruber CBS
135680 was systematically investigated for its secondary
metabolite potential through genome mining. A total of 36
biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) were identified, including
four non-ribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) clusters, eight
NRPS-like clusters, eight type I polyketide synthase (T1PKS)
clusters, ten terpene clusters, four hybrid clusters, and
two siderophore clusters. The largest NRPS cluster (AruBGC2,
~ 58 kb) encodes the siderophore synthase SidC, while
AruBGC23 was linked to asperfuranone biosynthesis.
Additional clusters were predicted to synthesize bioactive
compounds such as cornexistin, TAN-1612, naphthopyrone,
clavaric acid, squalestatin S1, asperlactone, and
epipyriculol. These metabolites are associated with diverse
biological activities, including anticancer, antibacterial,
antifungal, nematocidal, and herbicidal properties. The
discovery of canonical and noncanonical BGCs pinpoints the
metabolic diversity of A. ruber and highlights potential as
a promising source of natural products. This study provides
the first comprehensive genome-wide assessment of secondary
metabolism in A. ruber, offering valuable insights for
future drug discovery and biotechnological applications.The
