Daptomycin was shown to interact in vitro with pulmonary surfactant leading to reduction of its antibacterial activity. We report herein the preparation and anti-staphylococcal activity of a series of daptomycin analogs with reduced pulmonary surfactant interaction by replacing tryptophan with various amino acids.
