Bacillaenum

Bacillaenum (Anglice: bacillaene) est antibioticum ex Bacillo subtili natum, primum anno 1995 agnitum.P. S. Patel, S. Huang, S. Fisher, D. Pirnik, C. Aklonis, L. Dean, E. Meyers, P. Fernandes, F.

Bacillaenum est molecula linearis cum duo nodis amidis: primus acidum α-hydroxy-carboxylicum et ω-acidum aminocarboxylicum religat, quod hexaenum coniugatum continet, et alter acidum carboxylicum religat quod hexaenum continet et acidum (ω-1)-carboxylicum, quod trienum coniugatum continet.<ref>

Investigationes in vitro indicant hoc antibioticum synthesin proteini prokaryotici, sed non synthesin proteini eukaryotici, inhibere.

Congeries genorum ≈80-kb pksX Bacillo subtili inusitatam synthasin peptidi polyketidi/nonribosomalis hybridam (hybrid polyketide/nonribosomal peptide synthase'') insignit, quae ad productionem bacillaeni antibiotici et non circumscripti adligata est.
