Global Genome Mining Reveals the Distribution of Diverse Thioamidated RiPP Biosynthesis Gene Clusters
Thioamidated ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptides (RiPPs) are recently characterized natural products with wide range of potent bioactivities, such as antibiotic, antiproliferative, and cytotoxic activities. These peptides are distinguished by the presence of thioamide...

description | Thioamidated ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptides (RiPPs) are recently characterized natural products with wide range of potent bioactivities, such as antibiotic, antiproliferative, and cytotoxic activities. These peptides are distinguished by the presence of thioamide bonds in the peptide backbone catalyzed by the YcaO-TfuA protein pair with its genes adjacent to each other. Genome mining has facilitated an in silico approach to identify biosynthesis gene clusters (BGCs) responsible for thioamidated RiPP production. In this work, publicly available genomic data was used to detect and illustrate the diversity of putative BGCs encoding for thioamidated RiPPs. AntiSMASH and RiPPER analysis identified 613 unique TfuA-related gene cluster families (GCFs) and 797 precursor peptide families, even on phyla where the presence of these clusters have not been previously described. Several additional biosynthesis genes are colocalized with the detected BGCs, suggesting an array of possible chemical modifications. This study shows that thioamidated RiPPs occupy a widely unexplored chemical landscape. |
