 Cyclodipeptide synthases

Cyclodipeptide synthases (CDPSs) are enzymes that catalyze the formation of cyclodipeptides, which are cyclic dipeptides. These compounds consist of two amino acids linked by a peptide bond, forming a cyclic structure. Cyclodipeptides can exhibit a variety of biological activities, including antimicrobial, antifungal, and anticancer properties, and are of interest for their potential pharmaceutical applications.
