Abstract

We used the concept of chemical space to explore a virtual library of bicyclic peptides formed by double thioether cyclization of a precursor linear peptide, and identified an antimicrobial bicyclic peptide (AMBP) with remarkable activity against several MDR strains of Acinetobacter baumannii and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
