Unearthing a Cryptic Biosynthetic Gene Cluster for the Piperazic Acid-Bearing Depsipeptide Diperamycin in the Ant-Dweller <i>Streptomyces</i> sp. CS113

Piperazic acid is a cyclic nonproteinogenic amino acid that contains a hydrazine N-N bond formed by a piperazate synthase (KtzT-like). This amino acid, found in bioactive natural products synthesized by non-ribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPSs), confers conformational constraint to peptides, an impo...
