This entry is the open reading frame for the mutacin 1140 prepropeptide from Streptococcus mutans JH1140. Mutacin 1140 is type A lantibiotic (a linear antimicrobial peptide) differing from other bacteriocins by the presence of distinct post-translational modifications.
The mature mutacin peptide is a screw-shaped molecule that interferes with the longevity of Gram-positive bacteria by means of membrane perturbation. In order for mutacin 1140 to be functional the action of modifying enzymes is required. These enzymes catalyze the formation of stereospecific thioether bridges, dehydration, decarboxylation of the core peptide and leader peptide cleavage, as well as act as exporters of the modified mutacin.
