Numerous non-ribosomal peptides such as antibiotics, chelators of metals, metabolic and detoxificating enzymes are produced in an alternative ribosome-independent pathway as secondary metabolites, found in fungi and various bacteria. The chain of modules the enzyme - called non-ribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) - consists of, subsequently adds a defined amino acid to build a template-independent peptide chain. Every module’s sequence of subdomains furthermore encodes for possible chemical modifications of the amino acid. | Numerous non-ribosomal peptides such as antibiotics, chelators of metals, metabolic and detoxificating enzymes are produced in an alternative ribosome-independent pathway as secondary metabolites, found in fungi and various bacteria.
