Abstract
Methods of producing peptide beta-lactones and beta-hydroxy acids are disclosed that include contacting a beta-hydroxy-alpha-amino acid, an aryl carrier protein (ObiD), and ATP with a non-ribosomal protein synthetase. A continuous flow reactor is disclosed that includes an elongate conduit with at least one region that includes a first region with a non-ribosomal protein synthetase immobilized to a substrate. The non-ribosomal protein synthetase of the continuous flow reactor is configured to contact a flow of a reaction mixture that includes a beta-hydroxy-alpha-amino acid and an aryl carrier protein. The non-ribosomal protein synthetase is further configured to release a peptide beta-lactone into the flow of the reaction mixture.
