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 ...

question for promising drug targets: ring-shaped nonribosomal peptides. Researchers have invented computational tools to decode and rapidly determine whether natural compounds collected in oceans ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
