Abstract:Here, we report the development of a mutasynthesis approach for the derivatisation of pristinamycin I based on the phenylglycine residue in combination with a biotransformation process for mutasynthon provision.
Glycopeptide antibiotics (GPAs) are peptide natural products used as last resort treatments for antibiotic resistant bacterial infections. They are produced by the sequential activities of a linear nonribosomal peptide synthetase...
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
