In the mutasynthetic approach, the DeltadpgA mutant of the vancomycin-type glycopeptide antibiotic producer Amycolatopsis balhimycina, which is deficient in the synthesis of 3,5-dihydroxyphenylglycine (DPg), was supplemented with synthetic DPg analogues to obtain the corresponding modified glycopeptides. Sterically more demanding 3,5-disubstituted methoxy derivatives as well as monosubstituted DPg analogues were...
