The specific genes for lantibiotic mutacin II biosynthesis in Streptococcus mutans T8 are clustered and can be transferred en bloc.
Mutacin II is a ribosomally synthesized peptide lantibiotic produced by group II Streptococcus mutans. DNA sequencing has revealed that the mutacin II biosynthetic gene cluster consists of seven specific open reading frames: a regulator (mutR), the prepromutacin structural gene (mutA), a modifying protein (mutM), an ABC transporter (mutT), and an immunity cluster (mutFEG). Transformations of a ...
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequences of Two Clinical Isolates of Streptococcus mutans
We report the draft genome sequences of PKUSS-HG01 and PKUSS-LG01, two clinical isolates of Streptococcus mutans from human dental plaque. The genomics information will facilitate the study of the mechanisms of pathogenicity and evolution of S. mutans.
متن کاملStructure-activity study of the lantibiotic mutacin II from Streptococcus mutans T8 by a gene replacement strategy.
Mutacin II, elaborated by group II Streptococcus mutans, is a ribosomally synthesized and posttranslationally modified polypeptide antibiotic containing unusual thioether and didehydro amino acids. To ascertain the role of specific amino acid residues in mutacin II antimicrobial activity, we developed a streptococcal expression system that facilitates the replacement of the mutA gene with a sin...
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequences of Two Acetylene-Fermenting Pelobacter acetylenicus Strains
Acetylene fermentation is a rare metabolism that was serendipitously discovered during C2H2-block assays of N2O reductase. Here, we report the genome sequences of two type strains of acetylene-fermenting Pelobacter acetylenicus, the freshwater bacterium DSM 3246 and the estuarine bacterium DSM 3247.
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequences of Two Porcine Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli Strains
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is one of the main causes of illness and death in neonatal and recently weaned pigs. Here, we sequenced the genomes of two ETEC strains that were previously used as inactivated vaccines in China.
