What is it? As the name suggests, nonribosomal peptide synthesis (NRPS) generates polypeptides sans ribosome. The resultant peptides, generally short oligomers of two to perhaps 48 residues, are not ...

The synthetic biologists from Imperial College London have re-engineered yeast cells to manufacture the nonribosomal peptide antibiotic penicillin. In laboratory experiments, they were able to ...

The authors of the study (“Biosynthesis of the Antibiotic Nonribosomal Peptide Penicillin in Baker’s Yeast”), which is published in Nature Communications, say their new method ...

rgba(255, 255, 255, 0)”>Such nonribosomal peptides are formed by nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPSs) that assemble a diverse group of natural products, including penicillin (antibacterial ...

We are interested in the biosynthesis of a certain class of natural products, the nonribosomal peptides. This group of natural products include important compounds like the penicillins, vancomycin and ...

These useful molecules, known as nonribosomal peptides, are formed by a group of enzymes called nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPSs) that assemble a diverse group of natural products including ...

New research published today in Nature Communications, describes how CRISPR-cas9 gene editing can be used to create new nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) enzymes that deliver clinically ...

Most antibiotics are made from nonribosomal peptides, which certain bacteria and fungi naturally produce. As we start running into trouble with the more common antibiotics, there's a need to ...
