Figure 2: The genes required for the biosynthesis of shinorine are present in anthozoan cnidarians. Top, the organization of the gene cluster involved in the biosynthetic pathway of the photo-protective molecule shinorine, a mycosporine-like amino acid, in the cyanobacterium Anabaena variabilis. Bottom, the presence of corresponding genes in various organisms is indicated (+). The Acropora and Nematostella genomes contain homologues of each of the four genes, in which DHQS-like and O-MT are fused with each other.
