Producer Organism: Staphylococcus aureus CH-91 DSM 26258 [Gram-positive]

Taxonomy: BacteriaFirmicutesBacillalesStaphylococcus

Target organismsMicrococcus luteus (MIC=2.5 nM) - staphylococcus staphylococcus (MIC range 1.3-6.0 μM) - Lactococcus lactis (MIC=100 μM) -

Description
It is a thermostable peptide that is highly resistant to cleavage by both prokaryotic and eukaryotic peptidases.

The encoding gene (BacCH91) occurred in two allelic variants distinguishable in the restriction fragment length polymorphism assay. Variant I, identified in S. aureus CH-91, dominated in S. aureus strains of poultry origin, although strains with variant II were also identified in this group. S. aureus strains of human origin were characterized exclusively by variant II.
