Abstract

The covalent enzymes intermediates of polyketide and nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPS) were analyzed. The study was carried out by using online capillary liquid chromatography Fourier transform mass spectroscopy (LC-FTMS). The enzymes involved in NRPS were often the largest in their respective proteosome and analysis requires enzymetic and chemical digestions followed by fractionations with reverse-phase chromatography. The results show that the rising complexity of subsequent digestion mixtures, chromatographic separation has had to be employed to achieve biosynthetic intermediates.
