amino acid adenylylation by nonribosomal peptide synthase

id: GO:0043042
name: amino acid adenylylation by nonribosomal peptide synthase
namespace: biological_process
type: go
obsolete: False

Description: Activation of an amino acid for incorporation into a peptide by a nonribosomal process, catalyzed by subunits of nonribosomal peptide synthase. The amino acid is adenylated at its carboxylate group (ATP-dependent) then transferred to the thiol group of an enzyme-bound phosphopantetheine cofactor.
