Thiopeptides are a family of highly modified peptide metabolites, characterized by a macrocycle bearing a central piperidine/dehydropiperidine/pyridine ring, multiple thiazole rings, and several dehydrated amino acid residues. Thiopeptides have useful antibacterial, antimalarial, and anticancer properties but have not been adapted
