Non-ribosomal peptide synthetases are assembly line biosynthetic pathways that are used to produce critical therapeutic drugs and are typically arranged as large multi-domain proteins called megasynthetases<sup>1</sup>. They synthesize polypeptides using peptidyl carrier proteins that shuttle each amino acid through modular loading, modification and elongation<sup>2</sup> steps, and remain challenging to structurally characterize, owing in part to the inherent dynamics of their multi-domain and ...[more]
