Report excerpt

Wen Liu's team at Shanghai Jiao Tong University reports in Nature Communications that TIGR04500 family proteins use a molecular chaperone-like mechanism to assist ATP-grasp enzymes in catalyzing the biosynthesis of ribosomal peptides (RiPPs). AlphaFold3-assisted genome mining identified 285 related protein sequences.
