Antibiotic glycosyltransferases

In the biosynthesis of several classes of antibiotics, sugars are attached to aglycone scaffolds by antibiotic-specific glycosyltransferases in the latter stages of the pathways. Two glycosylation pathways will be examined: the glycopeptide antibiotics of the vancomycin class and the aminocoumarin a...
