Bacteriocin AS-48 produced by Enterococcus faecalis S-48 is a ribosomally synthesized cyclic peptide (7.4 kDa) of broad inhibitory spectrum against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Simple monolayers of AS-48 and of dipalmitoyl phosphatidic acid (DPPA) at the air-water interface are studied.
