✦ Synopsis


Sumnary: Total synthesis of a lanthionine peptide nisin was successfully achieved for the first time by application of new methods for preparations of dehydroalanine and lanthionine moieties, resulting in a confirmation of the proposed structure. A peptide antibiotic nisin has been used as a food preservative, since it shows a remarkable antibacterial activity particularly against Clostridium botulinum. Nisin was first found in 1928') but isolated by Mattick et al. in 1947 ) 2 from Streptococcus lactis -. Its unique

The peptide antibiotic nisin is shown to disrupt valinomycin-induced potassium diffusion potentials imposed on intact cells of Staphylococcus cohnii 22. Membrane depolarization occurred rapidly at high diffusion potentials while at low potentials nisin-induced depolarization was slower suggesting th
