Phosphonates are organophosphorus compounds possessing a characteristic C-P bond in which phosphorus is directly bonded to carbon. As phosphonates mimic the phosphates and carboxylates of biological molecules to potentially inhibit metabolic enzymes, they could be lead compounds for the development of a variety of drugs. Fosfomycin (FM) is a representative phosphonate natural product that is widely used as an antibacterial drug. Here, we review the biosynthesis of FM, which includes a recent breakthrough to find a missing link in the b
