Abstract:
This viewpoint article focuses on the structures of the dissected catalytic domains of non-ribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPSs) associated with substrate selection and activation (A domain), substrate shuttling among the active sites (PCP domain), peptide bond formation (C domain) and product release (TE domain). Structural details of these essential components of the NRPS machinery, integrated in a didomain (PCP-C) and an elongation module (C-A-PCP), were used to generate a model for a multimodular NRPS assembly line.

Ribosomal RNA Synthesis
Ribosome biogenesis begins with the synthesis of 5S and 45S pre-rRNAs by distinct RNA polymerases. The primary transcripts are extensively processed and modified before they are bound and folded by ribosomal proteins and assembly factors,...
