| Zusammenfassung: | <jats:p>Pantoea dispersa W18, isolated from contaminated soil, was found to exert antimicrobial activity against Mycobacterium species, including Mycobacterium tuberculosis, an important human pathogen. Here, the anti-mycobacterial compound produced by Pantoea dispersa W18 was purified by a combination of hydrophobic interaction chromatography, cation exchange chromatography, and reverse phase HPLC. Active compounds from Pantoea dispersa W18 were identified as a natural peptide named pantocin wh-1 with a 1927 Da molecular weight. The primary structure of this compound was detected by N-terminal amino acid sequencing. The amino acid sequence of pantocin wh-1 consisted of 16 amino acid residues with a cyclic structure. The pantocin wh-1 could be inactivated by protease K, but was heat stable and unaffected by pH (2–12). However, the activity was not completely inactivated by trypsin and pepsin. This is the first report of a cyclic polypeptide purified from a strain of Pantoea dispersa.</jats:p> |
