Synthesis of Glycopeptide Antibiotic Peptide Substrates Using Knorr-Pyrazole Chemistry. [PDF]
The glycopeptide antibiotics (GPAs) are important clinical antibiotics. While chemoenzymatic synthesis of more hydrophilic GPAs like vancomycin has aided our understanding of GPA crosslinking, hydrophobic GPAs remain underexplored. Here, we show that modified Knorr‐pyrazole chemistry improves access to hydrophobic peptidyl‐CoAs, with such substrates ...

Identification of a Novel Biosynthetic Gene Cluster in Aspergillus niger Using Comparative Genomics
Previously, DNA microarrays analysis showed that, in co-culture with Bacillus subtilis, a biosynthetic gene cluster anchored with a nonribosomal peptides synthetase of Aspergillus niger is downregulated.
