Schematic representation of the hybrid NRPS-PKS cluster of pAMDE1. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Genes are colored according to the inferred function. NRPS and PKS domain architecture is shown inside boxes. NRPS and PKS gene numbers are indicated. C: Condensation domain, A: Adenylation domain, T: thiolation domain, Cy: modified condensation domain ...

Deconstruction of Human Age‐Related Cataract Capsules Defines Aging

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We generate a comprehensive atlas of age‐related cataracts (ARC) at a single‐cell resolution, encompassing three disease states—mild cataract group (Mild), severe cortical cataract group (Severe_C), and severe nuclear cataract group (Severe_N). We find that ARC involves seven distinct lens capsule cell types, with notable differences in cellular ...

P450-mediated dehydrotyrosine formation during WS9326 biosynthesis proceeds via dehydrogenation of a specific acylated dipeptide substrate

open access: yesActa Pharmaceutica Sinica B, 2023
WS9326A is a peptide antibiotic containing a highly unusual N-methyl-E-2-3-dehydrotyrosine (NMet-Dht) residue that is incorporated during peptide assembly on a non-ribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS).

Chemoselective Metabolomics via a Modular Reactivity‐Encoding Platform

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Conventional LC–MS underrepresents numerous metabolites due to heterogeneous ionization efficiencies and matrix interference. Here, we introduce a modular reactivity‐encoding platform (MREP) comprising four alkyne‐tagged probes that selectively derivatize key functional groups, followed by unified click‐chemistry capture to eliminate matrix components ...

Phylogeny of bacterial NRPS sequences. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Relationships inferred by maximum likelihood analysis of bacterial NRPS adenylation domain fragments using the LG substitution model. Branch lengths indicate inferred divergence of amino acid sequences. Numbers adjacent to the nodes indicate aLRT support,

Unveiling the Taxonomic Diversity and Unprecedented Biosynthetic Treasure of the Phylum Myxococcota

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Natural products remain vital sources of therapeutics, and the phylum Myxococcota constitutes an especially rich reservoir for them. Based on decades of microbiological efforts, we present 154 new Myxococcota genomes and revise taxonomy quadrupling the number of families and genera.

NRPS Substrate Promiscuity Diversifies the Xenematides

open access: yesOrganic Letters, 2011
Xenematide, a cyclic depsipeptide antibiotic produced by Xenorhabdus nematophila, had a candidate nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) with atypical features. Differential metabolite analysis between a mutant and wildtype validated that this stand-alone NRPS was required for xenematide production, and further analysis led to a series of new ...

Repurposing FDA‐Approved Drugs to Inhibit Fungal PPTases for Broad‐Spectrum Synergy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Fungal secondary metabolites serve as crucial virulence effectors; however, the potential of their biosynthetic pathways as antifungal targets remains inadequately comprehended. Repurposed FDA‐approved drugs inhibit fungal PPTase (essential for secondary metabolism) in vivo.

Functional Diversity and Engineering of the Adenylation Domains in Nonribosomal Peptide Synthetases

open access: yesMarine Drugs
Nonribosomal peptides (NRPs) are biosynthesized by nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPSs) and are widely distributed in both terrestrial and marine organisms. Many NRPs and their analogs are biologically active and serve as therapeutic agents.
