A locus claim and a taxon claim are different questions. Heterologous expression settles the first and leaves the second where the isolation report left it.

Open questions 1
name-disagreement — ChEBI calls this structure '3-[(Z)-2-isocyanovinyl]indole' and MIBiG calls it "3-(Z-2'-isocyanoethenyl)-indole". They share a Standard InChIKey, so if the names denote different compounds then one upstream record has the wrong structure. Check which.
