Mutacin III biosynthetic device



The biosynthetic locus of mutacin III was designed by our team in a form allowing for high-yield and fine-tuned expression of the peptide (Fig. 1). We placed a strong T7 promoter upstream of mutA to obtain high levels of the propeptide, a repressible pTet promoter upstream of the mutBCDP co-transcription unit and an inducible araBAD promoter for the mutT gene, coding for the ATP-binding-cassette-like transporter of mutacin III. All illegal restriction sites were removed from the endogenous sequences by silent mutagenesis.
