Draft genome sequence of a human-associated isolate of Haloferax alexandrinus strain Arc-hr, an extremely halophilic archaea

open access: yesNew Microbes and New Infections, 2017
We report the draft genome sequence of Haloferax alexandrinus strain Arc-hr (CSUR P798), isolated from the human gut of a 10-year-old Amazonian individual. Its 3 893 626 bp genome exhibits a 66.00% GC content.

Engineering Fungal Nonribosomal Peptide Synthetase-like Enzymes by Heterologous Expression and Domain Swapping

open access: yes, 2016
A facile genetic methodology in the filamentous fungus Aspergillus nidulans allowed the exchange of various domains in nonribosomal peptide synthase (NRPS)-like enzymes from Aspergillus terreus.

Distinct roles for intra- and extracellular siderophores during Aspergillus fumigatus infection.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2007
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.

ANTI-BACTERIAL PROPERTY OF A CORAL-ASSOCIATED BACTERIUM Bacillus sp. AGAINST CORAL PATHOGENIC [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
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.

Enhancing Nonribosomal Peptide Biosynthesis in Filamentous Fungi [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Filamentous fungi are historically known as rich sources for production of biologically active natural products, so-called secondary metabolites. One particularly pharmaceutically relevant chemical group of secondary metabolites is the nonribosomal peptides synthesized by nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPSs).

Naphthyridinomycin Biosynthesis Revealing the Use of Leader Peptide to Guide Nonribosomal Peptide Assembly

open access: yes, 2016
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

open access: yes, 2019
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

open access: yesSmall Structures
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

open access: yes, 2016
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
