Abstract

Lyciumin cyclic peptides and methods of producing lyciumin cyclic peptides are described. A host cell can include a transgene encoding a lyciumin precursor peptide, or a biologically-active fragment thereof. The lyciumin precursor peptide, or biologically-active fragment thereof, can include one or more core lyciumin peptide domains. The transgene can be expressed in the host cell to thereby produce a lyciumin precursor peptide, or biologically-active fragment thereof. The lyciumin precursor peptide, or biologically-active fragment thereof, can be converted to one or more lyciumin cyclic peptides in the host cell. A library of nucleic acids encoding lyciumin precursor peptides, or biologically-active fragments thereof, can be generated.
