Malayamycin A is an unusual bicyclic C-nucleoside, with interesting antiviral, antifungal, and anticancer bioactivity. We report here the discovery and characterization of the biosynthetic pathway to malayamycin by using genome mining of near-identical clusters both from the known producer Streptomyces
