Fig. 1From: Nonribosomal peptides synthetases and their applications in industryStructural features of nonribosomal peptide synthetase enzymes. Nonribosomal peptide synthetase enzymes can be subdivided in modules, each incorporating one amino acid. Each module consist of three domains: adenylation (A) domain, peptidyl carrier protein (PCP) domain, and condensation (C) domain, which carry out the synthesis of nonribosomal peptides; the epimerization (E) domain and thioesterase (TE) domain is also represents. In this figure, surfactin biosynthesis was exemplifiedBack to article page
