Discovery and biosynthesis of tricyclic copper-binding ribosomal peptides containing histidine-to-butyrine crosslinks

Abstract Cyclic peptide natural products represent an important class of bioactive compounds and clinical drugs. Enzymatic side-chain macrocyclization of ribosomal peptides is a major strategy developed by nature to generate these chemotypes, as exemplified by the superfamily of ribosomally synthesi...
