Definition:Catalysis of a multistep reaction that produce non-ribosomal peptides. The key chain-building reaction, a C-N bond-forming reaction, involves the generation of the characteristic peptide bond by nucleophilic attack of the amino group of an amino-acyl donor unit covalently bound to a downstream peptidyl carrier protein module (amino acyl-S-PCP) on the acyl group of an upstream electrophilic acyl- or peptidyl acyl-S-PCP chain, catalyzed by a condensation (C) domain. Supplementing these core chain-elongation domains are variable numbers of auxiliary domains that are responsible for modification of the growing polypeptide chain by a small set of iterated reactions including epimerization, N-methylation, and heterocyclization.
Comment:Examples are the ferrichrome synthetase Sib1 in S. pombe and the peptidyl carrier protein (PCP) module in bacterial nonribosomal peptide synthases (NRPSs), which holds the peptidyl group and acts as a swinging arm, limiting diffusion until the peptide comes into contact with the next enzymatic module in the NRPS process.
