    Peptide cyclization catalysed by the thioesterase domain of tyrocidine synthetase

    In the biosynthesis of many macrocyclic natural products by multidomain megasynthases, a carboxy-terminal thioesterase (TE) domain is involved in cyclization and product release1,2; however, it has not been deter...
