Bacteriocin: lacticin 3147 A1

Accession: BAC039

Classification
Class: Lantibiotic
Genetics
Gene: ltnA1; Synonyms=ltnA; ORFNames=ORF00035
Producer and target organisms

Producer Organism: Lactococcus lactis subsp (Streptococcus lactis), lactis [Gram-positive]

Taxonomy: BacteriaFirmicutesLactobacillalesStreptococcaceaeLactococcus

Target organismsactive on Gram-positive bacteria: Enterococcus - Lactobacillus - Lactococcus - Leuconostoc

Description
Mode of action:
Lanthionine-containing peptide antibiotic (lantibiotic). The bactericidal activity of lantibiotics is based on depolarization of energized bacterial cytoplasmic membranes, initiated by the formation of aqueous transmembrane pores. When present individually lacticin 3147 A1 exhibits strong activity towards L.lactis strain AM2, weak activity towards L.lactis strain HP and no activity towards L.lactis strain IFPL359, but when combined with lacticin 3147 A2 it displays strong activity towards all three strains.

Post-translational modification:
Maturation of lantibiotics involves the enzymic conversion of Thr, and Ser into dehydrated AA and the formation of thioether bonds with cysteine. This is followed by membrane translocation and cleavage of the modified precursor. NOTE=Ref.2. NOTE=Ref.3. NOTE=Ref.4.
