Nisin- and Ripcin-Derived Hybrid Lanthipeptides Display Selective Antimicrobial Activity against Staphylococcus aureus

Xinghong Zhao et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates the synthesis of novel macrocyclic lanthipeptides using thanatin and rip-thanatin as templates, showing selective antimicrobial activity against S. aureus, including an antibiotic-resistant MRSA strain. The hybrid peptides of nisin(1-20) and ripcin, ripcin B-G, which are inactive against Gram-negative pathogens, exhibited substantial antimicrobial activity against tested Gram-negative pathogens and were highly resistant against the nisin resistance protein NSR.

BrevicidineB, a New Member of the Brevicidine Family, Displays an Extended Target Specificity

Xinghong Zhao et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that a peptide compound named brevicidineB with a single substitution in the amino acid sequence has a broader antimicrobial spectrum, showing activity against both Gram-negative and Gram-positive pathogens. By disrupting bacterial cell membranes and proton motive force, brevicidine and brevicidineB exert their antimicrobial activity.

New developments in RiPP discovery, enzymology and engineering

Manuel Montalban-Lopez et al.

Summary: This article reviews the research progress of ribosomally-synthesized and post-translationally modified peptides (RiPPs) as of June 2020, including the discovery of new RiPP classes, deeper understanding of the mechanisms for the installation of post-translational modifications, and the mechanisms by which enzymes recognize leader peptides. Additionally, genome mining tools and strategies for RiPP engineering are also discussed in the review.
