A distributive peptide cyclase processes multiple microviridin core peptides within a single polypeptide substrate
Microviridins belong to the family of ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptides (RiPPs). Here, the authors discover a microviridin-synthesizing enzyme in a cyanobacterium that modifies multiple core peptides from a single substrate in a distributive and unstrictly directiona...

Résumé: | Microviridins belong to the family of ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptides (RiPPs). Here, the authors discover a microviridin-synthesizing enzyme in a cyanobacterium that modifies multiple core peptides from a single substrate in a distributive and unstrictly directional manner, an unusual biosynthetic logic for RiPPs. |
