Abstract
Rhabdopeptide/xenortide-like peptide (RXP) nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPSs) derived from entomophathogenic Xenorhabdus and Photorhabdus bacteria often produce libraries of different peptides varying in amino acid composition, number and degree of methylation, which mainly is a result of promiscuous docking domains (DDs) mediating protein-protein interactions between the different NRPS subunits. In this study, we present two specific RXP-NRPS systems with rather specific DDs that were used as platforms to generate a series of defined RXPs via the exchange of adenylation/ methyltransferase (A-MT) domains in the systems followed by heterologous expression in Escherichia coli. Additionally, these results suggest that NRPS subunit interaction is not only exclusively dependent on DDs but at least partially also on A domains.
