The Gramicidin S biosynthetic machinery the enzymatic assembly consists of two NRPSs (GrsA and GrsB) and their modules, respectively. Each module is responsible for the incorporation of one monomeric amino acid. The thioesterase domain (TE domain) catalyzes the dimerization of two assembled pentapeptides and subsequent cyclization, resulting in gramicidin S (Hoyer et al., 2007).
