A newly discovered gene, tfuA, involved in the production of the ribosomally synthesized peptide antibiotic trifolitoxin.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Jul 1996

Abstract excerpt

Trifolitoxin (TFX) is a gene-encoded, posttranslationally modified peptide antibiotic. Previously, we have shown that tfxABCDEFG from Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifolii T24 is sufficient to confer TFX production and resistance to nonproducing strains within a distinct taxonomic group of the alp...
