Chapter 14 Biosynthesis of Nonribosomal Peptide Precursors

open access: yes, 2009
Nonribosomal peptides are natural products typically of bacterial and fungal origin. These highly complex molecules display a broad spectrum of biological activities, and have been exploited for the development of immunosuppressant, antibiotic ...

Automated genome mining for natural products

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2009
Background Discovery of new medicinal agents from natural sources has largely been an adventitious process based on screening of plant and microbial extracts combined with bioassay-guided identification and natural product structure elucidation ...

Taxonomic Positions of a Nyuzenamide-Producer and Its Closely Related Strains

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
Streptomyces sp. N11-34 is a producer of bicyclic peptides named nyuzenamides A and B. We elucidated its taxonomic position and surveyed its nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) and polyketide synthase (PKS) gene clusters by whole genome analysis ...

Resistance to nonribosomal peptide antibiotics mediated by d-stereospecific peptidases

open access: yes, 2018
Nonribosomal peptide antibiotics, including polymyxin, vancomycin, and teixobactin, most of which contain d-amino acids, are highly effective against multidrug-resistant bacteria.

Structure of a bound peptide phosphonate reveals the mechanism of nocardicin bifunctional thioesterase epimerase-hydrolase half-reactions

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
NocTE is a nonribosomal peptide synthetase thioesterase that completes the biosynthesis of pro-nocardicin G, the precursor for nocardicin β-lactam antibiotics. Here the authors provide mechanistic insights into NocTE by determining its crystal structures

Norine: A powerful resource for novel nonribosomal peptide discovery

open access: yesSynthetic and Systems Biotechnology, 2016
Since its first release in 2008, Norine remains the unique resource completely devoted to nonribosomal peptides (NRPs). They are very attractive microbial secondary metabolites, displaying a remarkable diversity of structure and functions. Norine (http://

Integrating genomics and metabolomics for scalable non-ribosomal peptide discovery

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Current genome mining methods predict many putative non-ribosomal peptides (NRPs) from their corresponding biosynthetic gene clusters, but it remains unclear which of those exist in nature and how to identify their post-assembly modifications.
