<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Hybrid type I PKS/NRPS biosynthetic pathways typically proceed in a collinear manner wherein one molecular building block is enzymatically incorporated in a sequence that corresponds to gene arrangement. In this work, genome mining combined with the use of a fluorogenic azide‐based click probe led to the discovery and characterization of vatiamides A–F, three structurally diverse alkynylated lipopeptides, and their brominated analogues, from the cyanobacterium <jats:italic>Moorea producens</jats:italic> ASI16Jul14‐2. These derive from a unique combinatorial non‐collinear PKS/NRPS system encoded by a 90 kb gene cluster in which an upstream PKS cassette interacts with three separate cognate NRPS partners. This is facilitated by a series of promiscuous intermodule PKS‐NRPS docking motifs possessing identical amino acid sequences. This interaction confers a new type of combinatorial capacity for creating molecular diversity in microbial systems.
