New Sipanmycin Analogues Generated by Combinatorial Biosynthesis and Mutasynthesis Approaches Relying on the Substrate Flexibility of Key Enzymes in the Biosynthetic Pathway.

Abstract excerpt

The appearance of new infectious diseases, the increase in multidrug-resistant bacteria, and the need for more effective chemotherapeutic agents have oriented the interests of researchers toward the search for metabolites with novel or improved bioactivities. Sipanmycins are disaccharyl glycosylated macrolactams that exert antibiotic and cytotoxic activities. By applying combinatorial biosynthesis and...
