Radical SAM-dependent ether crosslink in daropeptide biosynthesis

Darobactin is a ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptide featuring a unique scaffold and potent activity against Gram-negative bacteria. Here, the authors identify darobactin synthase DarE as responsible for the bicyclic scaffold formation and propose the name daropeptide fo...

description Darobactin is a ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptide featuring a unique scaffold and potent activity against Gram-negative bacteria. Here, the authors identify darobactin synthase DarE as responsible for the bicyclic scaffold formation and propose the name daropeptide for this growing class of enzymes.
