contents A review on the expanding biotechnological frontier of Pedobacter. Figueiredo, Gonçalo Osório, Hugo Mendes, Marta V Mendo, Sónia Biotechnology Pedobacter Biological Products Synthetic Biology The genus Pedobacter consists of Gram-negative bacteria with a broad geographic distribution, isolated from diverse habitats, including water, soil, plants, wood, rocks and animals. However, characterization efforts have been limited to a small number of species. Likewise, in the context of natural products (NP), only a small fraction of Pedobacter -derived NPs have been characterized so far. In contrast, in silico analysis of the increasing number of available genomes in the databases, suggests a wealth of yet to be discovered compounds. Notable biotechnological applications described so far include the production of heparinases and chondroitinases for therapeutic purposes, phytases and galactosidases as aquaculture feed supplements, alginate lyases for biofuel production, and secondary metabolites such as pedopeptins and isopedopeptins with antimicrobial properties. Further research integrating synthetic biology approaches, holds great promise for unlocking the hidden potential of members of this genus, thus expanding its industrial applications.
