ANTI-BACTERIAL PROPERTY OF A CORAL-ASSOCIATED BACTERIUM Bacillus sp. AGAINST CORAL PATHOGENIC [PDF]
Marine organisms such as corals are frequently colonized by bacteria that may be pathogenic to them. One of the means by which they are able to combat microbial attack is by chemical defense.

ABSTRACT Cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (cyanoHABs) threaten human, animal, and ecosystem health and safety through production of toxic secondary metabolites. Microcystis, a cosmopolitan bloom‐forming cyanobacterial genus, is well‐known for producing hepatotoxic microcystins (MCs), but it can produce many other bioactive cyanopeptides, such as ...

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.

Synthesis of Glycopeptide Antibiotic Peptide Substrates Using Knorr‐Pyrazole Chemistry
The glycopeptide antibiotics (GPAs) are important clinical antibiotics. While chemoenzymatic synthesis of more hydrophilic GPAs like vancomycin has aided our understanding of GPA crosslinking, hydrophobic GPAs remain underexplored. Here, we show that modified Knorr‐pyrazole chemistry improves access to hydrophobic peptidyl‐CoAs, with such substrates ...

Analysis of naphthyridinomycin gene cluster revealed that this antibiotic is generated by nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) machinery. However, four modules encoded by two genes do not correspond with the structural units in the final product ...

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.

Mechanistic Insights Into the Biosynthesis of Pseurotin A in Aspergillus fumigatus
The biosynthesis of pseurotin A, a fungal metabolite with antibiotic and immunosuppressive properties, involves a group of enzymes, including a polyketide‐nonribosomal peptide synthase (PKS‐NRPS), PsoA, and a bifunctional enzyme, PsoF. PsoA consists of a

A Fungal Nonribosomal Peptide Synthetase Module that can Synthesize Thiopyrazines
A nonribosomal peptide synthetase-like enzyme (NRPS325) from Aspergillus terreus was reconstituted in vitro and was shown to synthesize thiopyrazines using an unprecedented mechanism. Substrate promiscuity of NRPS325 toward different amino acids and free
