Type Oligopeptide / Lantibiotic Details ACTAGARDINE IS A TRICYCLIC PEPTIDE. POST TRANSLATIONAL MATURATION OF LANTIBIOTICS INVOLVES THE ENZYMIC CONVERSION OF THR AND SER INTO DEHYDRATED AMINO ACIDS AND THE FORMATION OF THIOETHER BONDS WITH CYSTEINE. THE THIOETHER BONDS WITH CYSTEINE RESULT IN THREE RING STRUCTURES. THIS IS FOLLOWED BY MEMBRANE TRANSLOCATION AND CLEAVAGE OF THE MODIFIED PRECURSOR.
