Abstract

Covering: 1988 to 2012

This review presents recommended nomenclature for the biosynthesis of ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptides (RiPPs), a rapidly growing class of natural products. The current knowledge regarding the biosynthesis of the >20 distinct compound classes is also reviewed, and commonalities are discussed.

The recommendations in this review were compiled from the answers to two sets of successive questionnaires. Several discussion groups then made recommendations to the entire group of authors. The discussion groups were led by David Craik (cyclotides), Elke Dittmann (microviridins), Baldomero Olivera (conopeptides), Sylvie Rebuffat (microcins), Eric Schmidt (cyanobactins and LAPs), Wilfred van der Donk (lanthipeptides and glycocins), John Vederas (sactipeptides and N-to-C cyclized peptides), and Christopher Walsh (thiopeptides). The final write-ups for the several classes of compounds were provided by David Craik (cyclotides), Elke Dittmann (microviridins), Wendy Kelly (thiopeptides), Douglas Mitchell (LAPs), Joern Piel (proteusins), Baldomero Olivera (conopeptides), Martin Reaney (orbitides), Sylvie Rebuffat (microcins and lasso peptides), Eric Schmidt (cyanobactins), Wilfred van der Donk (introduction, lanthipeptides, linaridins, bottromycins, glycocins, quorum sensing peptides, PQQ, methanobactin, linear nomenclature, and outlook) and John Vederas (sactipeptides, N-to-C cyclized peptides, linear nomenclature). Coordination of the discussions and assembly and editing of the final review was done by Wilfred van der Donk. We thank Dr Qi Zhang (UIUC) for help with illustrations.
