Characterization of a Multipeptide Lantibiotic Locus in Streptococcus pneumoniae

26 Jan 2016

Abstract excerpt

UNLABELLED: Bacterial communities are established through a combination of cooperative and antagonistic interactions between the inhabitants. Competitive interactions often involve the production of antimicrobial substances, including bacteriocins, which are small antimicrobial peptides that target other community members. Despite the nearly ubiquitous presence of bacteriocin-encoding loci, inhibitory activity...
