Ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptide natural products: Overview and recommendations for a universal nomenclature

Paul G. Arnison, +65 more
TL;DR: This review presents recommended nomenclature for the biosynthesis of ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptides (RiPPs), a rapidly growing class of natural products.
Journal ArticleDOI

Predictive, structure-based model of amino acid recognition by nonribosomal peptide synthetase adenylation domains.

TL;DR: Critical residues in all known NRPS A domains have been identified that align with eight binding-pocket residues in the GrsA A domain and define sets of remarkably conserved recognition templates, which provides a rational framework for altering of A domain specificity by site-directed mutagenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Discovery of microbial natural products by activation of silent biosynthetic gene clusters.

TL;DR: This Review discusses the strategies that have been developed in bacteria and fungi to identify and induce the expression of silent BGCs, and briefly summarize methods for the isolation and structural characterization of their metabolic products.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synergy and contingency as driving forces for the evolution of multiple secondary metabolite production by Streptomyces species

TL;DR: It is concluded that the production by Streptomyces species of two or more secondary metabolites that act synergistically or contingently against biological competitors may be far more common than has previously been recognized.
