9. Many isnA homologues have been annotated as pvcA after the gene from the P. aeruginosa pathway (Figure 2) that was thought to be involved in the biosynthesis of the pyoverdine chromophore and pseudopyoverdine, the N-formyl derivative of 7 (Stintzi, A.; Johnson, Z.; Stonehouse, M.; Ochsner, U.; Meyer, J.-M.; Vasil, M. L.; Poole, K. J. Bacteriol. 1999, 181, 4118-4124

12. The structure of compound 2 was inferred by the observation of a peak with a similar UV trace to that of compound 1 but with a mass of 186, 18 mass units higher than 1. This hydrated version of compound 1 and other minor clone-specific compounds that appeared to be simple derivatives of compounds found in this study were not characterized in detail.
13. Both the L. pneumophila operon and the eDNA operon from clone CLBB-65 produce colored culture broths when expressed in E. coli and P. aeruginosa, respectively. In neither case did this color partition into the organic phase. The number and diversity of molecules characterized from this collection of biosynthetic pathways would likely increase with the use of additional model hosts or by examining the aqueous culture broth.
