The Biarylitides: Understanding the Structure and Biosynthesis of a Fascinating Class of Cytochrome P450 Modified RiPP Natural Products

open access: yesChemBioChem, Volume 26, Issue 7, April 1, 2025.
The biarylitides are fascinating RiPP natural products with small core peptides and diverse peptide crosslinks performed by cytochrome P450 enzymes. Here, we address the discovery and diversity of the biarylitides, methods to analyse these constrained cyclic peptides, the structures of the biarylitide P450 enzymes and address alternate catalytic ...

A naturally occurring standalone TrpB enzyme provides insights into allosteric communication within tryptophan synthase

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 34, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract Allosteric regulation of catalytic activity is a widespread property of multi‐enzyme complexes. The tryptophan synthase is a prototypical allosteric enzyme where the constituting α (TrpA) and β (TrpB) subunits mutually activate each other in a manner that is incompletely understood.

Citrate Supplementation Modulates Medium Viscosity and Poly‐γ‐Glutamic Acid Synthesis by Engineered B. subtilis 168

open access: yesEngineering in Life Sciences, Volume 25, Issue 3, March 2025.
ABSTRACT The industrially attractive biopolymer poly‐γ‐glutamic acid (γ‐PGA) is commonly produced by species of the genus Bacillus by co‐feeding different carbon‐ and nitrogen‐sources. Recent studies have highlighted the pivotal role of co‐metabolization of a rapidly degradable carbon source such as glycerol together with citrate for γ‐PGA production ...

Regulation of the \u3cem\u3eEscherichia coli\u3c/em\u3e Tryptophan Operon by Early Reactions in the Aromatic Pathway [PDF]

open access: yes, 1970
7-Methyltryptophan (7MT) or compounds which can be metabolized to 7MT, 3-methylanthranilic acid (3MA) and 7-methylindole, cause derepression of the trp operon through feedback inhibition of anthranilate synthetase. Tyrosine reverses 3MA or 7-methylindole

The Streptomyces coelicolor small ORF trpM stimulates growth and morphological development and exerts opposite effects on actinorhodin and calcium-dependent antibiotic production [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
In actinomycetes, antibiotic production is often associated with a morpho-physiological differentiation program that is regulated by complex molecular and metabolic networks. Many aspects of these regulatory circuits have been already elucidated and many

The Transcriptional Regulator DhyR Positively Modulates Daptomycin Biosynthesis in Streptomyces roseosporus

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 18, Issue 3, March 2025.
The hypothetical model of positive regulation of DhyR on daptomycin (DAP) production. DhyR enhanced DAP production by promoting the expression of the DAP gene cluster and precursor flux. Solid arrows: activation. Colour gradient arrow: upregulation. Solid lines: direct regulation. Dashed lines: indirect regulation or unknown route. ABSTRACT Daptomycin (

Evolution of a genome-encoded bias in amino acid biosynthetic pathways is a potential indicator of amino acid dynamics in the environment. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Overcoming the stress of starvation is one of an organism's most challenging phenotypic responses. Those organisms that frequently survive the challenge, by virtue of their fitness, will have evolved genomes that are shaped by their specific environments.

CerM and Its Antagonist CerN Are New Components of the Quorum Sensing System in Cereibacter sphaeroides, Signaling to the CckA/ChpT/CtrA System

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 13, Issue 6, December 2024.
The quorum sensing (QS) system of Cereibacter sphaeroides includes six LuxR homologs and one acylhomoserine lactone synthase homolog. Two LuxR homologs, CerM and CerN, are involved in regulating the expression of ctrA, which is part of the CckA/ChpT/CtrA two‐component system that controls flagellar motility.
