Efficient rational modification of non-ribosomal peptides by adenylation domain substitution [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Non-ribosomal peptide synthases are multimodular enzymes comprised of adenylation (A), condensation (C) and thiolation domains. Here, the authors show that non-ribosomal peptides can be generated solely by A domain substitutions, providing evidence that ...

Diversity of Linear Non-Ribosomal Peptide in Biocontrol Fungi [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2020
Biocontrol fungi (BFs) play a key role in regulation of pest populations. BFs produce multiple non-ribosomal peptides (NRPs) and other secondary metabolites that interact with pests, plants and microorganisms. NRPs—including linear and cyclic peptides (L-
