Reengineering and Discovery of Nonribosomal Peptide Synthetases
Nonribosomal peptides are an important class of natural products including the life-saving antibiotics penicillin and vancomycin and the deadly microcystins and cereulide. This important category of natural products is thus a focus of many research labs

We developed a genome‐integrated CRISPR/Cas12a system for Xenorhabdus budapestensis XBD8, which enables precise deletion or replacement of DNA fragments ranging from 379 to 45,168 bp, with a success rate exceeding 90%. Application of this tool for the dynamic regulation of fabclavine‐8 biosynthesis resulted in a 1.90‐fold increase in production ...

Kineochelins—A New Group of Siderophores From an Antarctic Bacterium
Genome‐guided analysis of an Antarctic Actinokineospora strain led to the discovery of kineochelins, a new group of siderophores involved in iron sequestration and microbial competition. Kineochelin production inhibits co‐occurring bacteria and clinically relevant yeasts, highlighting Antarctic microorganisms as promising sources of bioactive natural ...

Distinct roles for intra- and extracellular siderophores during Aspergillus fumigatus infection.
Siderophore biosynthesis by the highly lethal mould Aspergillus fumigatus is essential for virulence, but non-existent in humans, presenting a rare opportunity to strategize therapeutically against this pathogen.

Reprogramming Promiscuous Nonribosomal Peptide Synthetases for Production of Specific Peptides
Pairs of docking domains (DDs) mediate the selective interations between adjacent nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPSs) to form defined protein–protein interactions resulting in defined peptide sequences.
