    Diphenyl ethers (DPEs) are produced by filamentous fungi using polyketide synthases (PKSs) directly, or <i>via</i> Cu oxidase-catalyzed oxidative rearrangements of benzophenone intermediates. Here, we use heterologous expression to reveal a third route towards DPEs in <i>Preussia isomera</i> that relies on an oxidative multienzyme cascade to convert a PKS-generated, ester-linked didepside to depsidones and further to DPEs, and apply comparative genomics to identify conserved biosynthetic gene clusters for this pathway in multiple fungi. The distribution of DPE products is modulated by the expression chassis upon pathway reconstitution. Among the post-PKS enzymes, the DpeH tyrosinase shows considerable substrate promiscuity towards synthetic DPE analogues. By creating hybrid enzymes with a DpeH orthologue from <i>Aspergillus nidulans</i>, we identify the <i>C</i>-terminal region of DpeH to alter substrate recognition. Our work highlights an evolutionarily conserved way to produce DPEs, and provides enzymatic tools to generate DPE analogues with broad spectrum antibiotic activity against multidrug-resistant human pathogens.
