HABs drive the bioaccumulation of a specific family of specialized metabolites known as \u201ckainoids.\u201d Kainoid derivatives, such as kainic acid (KA) and domoic acid (DA), are among the most toxic marine-derived metabolites produced by a limited number of algal species. While recent studies have provided insights into the molecular basis of KA and DA production in red algae and diatoms, knowledge of the biosynthesis of kainoids remains insufficient.
