Streptococcin A-M49 is produced by certain strains of M-type 49 group A streptococci. The structural gene for streptococcin A-M49 was cloned after hybridization with a probe containing the scnA lantibiotic structural gene. Sequence analysis revealed a duplication of the scnA gene; each gene (scnA' and scnA") encoded a 51-amino-acid prepeptide.
链球菌素A-M49由某些M49型A组链球菌菌株产生。在与含有scnA羊毛硫抗生素结构基因的探针杂交后,克隆了链球菌素A-M49的结构基因。序列分析显示scnA基因存在重复;每个基因(scnA'和scnA")编码一个51个氨基酸的前肽。
