Filing pathway
Shikimates and phenylpropanoids — computed by NPClassifier npclassifier.gnps2.org@2026-09-07, which is why it is pinned rather than recomputed. The gene cluster's asserted class is other, from MIBiG.
Producer organisms 1
A claim that this taxon makes the compound. The basis says what the evidence addressed — a knockout and a database assertion are not the same claim.

Occurrences 1
Somebody found the compound in this organism and cited it. That is not a claim that the organism makes it, and nothing here promotes one to the other.

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 '3,4-dihydroxy-5-polyprenylbenzoic acid' and MIBiG calls it 'compound 3'. They share a Standard InChIKey, so if the names denote different compounds then one upstream record has the wrong structure. Check which.
