Chapter 3, Problem 19P

(a)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The structure of a peptide antibiotic isolated from Bacillus brevis from the given information.

Introduction:

Bacillus brevis is a bacterium. This was used to extract a peptide having antibiotic properties. The isolated peptide can form complexes with metal ions and can also interrupt the ion transport across the cell membranes of other bacterial species. This leads to lysis of bacteria. The structure of peptide can be determined using different protein analysis method.
