Bacillus species are one of the most interesting Gram-positive bacteria, forming endospore which are usually capable to produce variety of secondary metabolite compound such as antibiotic, enzymes which playing important roles In pharmaceutical industry, subtilin, bacilysin, gramicidin, tyrocidine, bacitracine, polymyxin, etc. The Bacillus species have a wide range of antimicrobial activisms since they are used as antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, antimycoplasma and anti ameobocytic agents .The production of this active compounds involve orangutans peptides, that divieded into two class firest class ribosomally generated and post-translationally altered which include (lantibiotics and lantibiotic-like peptides),second class non-ribosomally procreated, besides a various number of non-peptidicsubestansis like polyketides, an amino - sugar, and a phospholipid. In this review abridge the structures of antimicrobial peptide produced from Bacillus,the genetics encoded and analysis their generative and the current finding of antimicrobial activity for each peptide.

Abstract


Bacillus species are one of the most interesting Gram-positive bacteria, forming endospore which are usually capable to produce variety of secondary metabolite compound such as antibiotic, enzymes which playing important roles In pharmaceutical industry, subtilin, bacilysin, gramicidin, tyrocidine, bacitracine, polymyxin, etc. The Bacillus species have a wide range of antimicrobial activisms since they are used as antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, antimycoplasma and anti ameobocytic agents .The production of this active compounds involve orangutans peptides, that divieded into two class firest class ribosomally generated and post-translationally altered which include (lantibiotics and lantibiotic-like peptides),second class non-ribosomally procreated, besides a various number of non-peptidicsubestansis like polyketides, an amino - sugar, and a phospholipid. In this review abridge the structures of antimicrobial peptide produced from Bacillus,the genetics encoded and analysis their generative and the current finding of antimicrobial activity for each peptide.
