dc.description.abstract© 2018 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group. A subterranean limestone cave, Manao-Pee, was investigated for bacterial diversity and potential secondary metabolites production. Comparative 16 S rRNA analysis revealed that cave soil was highly dominated by Actinobacteria; whereas, Proteobacteria was highly abundant outside the cave. As Actinobacteria are biotechnologically valuable for their secondary metabolites, the diversity of the β-ketoacyl synthase (KSβ) was investigated. The results showed that the identified KSβhas 61–80% amino acid sequence identity to known sequences. Phylogenetic analysis placed some of the sequences in novel clades, suggesting the presence of novel KSβdomains. Thus, Manao-Pee cave is a promising habitat to discover potential novel bioactive compounds.en_US
