CYCLIC PEPTIDE PRODUCTION

摘要

An enzyme useful for producing cyclic peptides from linear peptide precursors and a gene encoding the enzyme are described. The enzyme is particularly useful for producing segetalins from linear presegetalin precursors. The linear presegetalin precursors may be derived from other linear presegetalin precursors farther upstream in the biosynthetic synthesis of the segetalin.
