Recombinant production of the lantibiotic nisin using Corynebacterium glutamicum in a two-step process

Abstract Background The bacteriocin nisin is naturally produced by Lactococcus lactis as an inactive prepeptide that is modified posttranslationally resulting in five (methyl-)lanthionine rings characteristic for class Ia bacteriocins. Export and proteolytic cleavage of the leader peptide results in...
