Functional analyses of the promoters in the lantibiotic mutacin II biosynthetic locus in Streptococcus mutans.

Applied and environmental microbiology - 1 Feb 1999

Qi F, Chen P, Caufield P W

Abstract excerpt

The lantibiotic bacteriocin mutacin II is produced by the group II Streptococcus mutans. The mutacin II biosynthetic locus consists of seven genes, mutR, -A, -M, -T, -F, -E, and -G, organized as two operons. The mutAMTFEG operon is transcribed from the mutA promoter 55 bp upstream of the translation start codon for MutA, while the mutR promoter is 76 bp upstream of the mutR structural gene. Expression of the mutA...
