NON-RIBOSOMAL PROTEIN SYNTHESIS PIGMENT FUSION PEPTIDES

摘要

The present invention relates to a polypeptide or polypeptide complex, comprising at least one non-ribosomal peptide synthesis (NRPS) amino acid module functionally connected to at least one pigment module. The present invention further relates to a labeled oligopeptide comprising a non-naturally attached NRPS pigment or/and polyketide pigment, to a polynucleotide encoding a fusion polypeptide, a vector, preferably an expression vector, comprising the polynucleotide of the present invention and to a host cell comprising the polypeptide or polypeptide complex and/or the polynucleotide, and/or the vector according to the present invention. Moreover, the present invention relates to in vitro and in vivo method of producing a labeled oligopeptide, as well as to methods of optimizing the same.
