| GenProp0825 |
bacteriocin system, circular bacteriocin group~This Genome Property describes a class of bacteriocin in which polypeptide produced on a ribosome is circularized. Within this Property are several non-homologous subgroups, described by different protein family signatures. Many bacteriocins are described as cyclic, but this subclass is distinguished by having the N-terminal and C-terminal amino acids linked from a precursor translated on a ribosome. They tend to be produced by Gram-positive bacteria, and to have less post-translational modification than the lantibiotic class of bacteriocin. Members of this subclass of the circular bacteriocins include circularin A from Clostridium beijerinckii, bacteriocin AS-48 from Enterococcus faecalis, uberolysin from Streptococcus uberis, and carnocyclin A from Carnobacterium maltaromaticum. |
