Integrated Omics Strategy Reveals Cyclic Lipopeptides Empedopeptins from <i>Massilia</i> sp. YMA4 and Their Biosynthetic Pathway

Empedopeptins—eight amino acid cyclic lipopeptides—are calcium-dependent antibiotics that act against Gram-positive bacteria such as <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> by inhibiting cell wall biosynthesis. However, to date, the biosynthetic mechanism of the empedopeptins has not been well iden...
