Gene cluster and precursor peptides of glycocins. a Pallidocin biosynthetic gene cluster (4805 bp) pal identified by BAGEL4 in A. pallidus 8 genome. b Alignment of glycocin precursor peptides. Conserved regions are highlighted in green color, Cys forming disulfide bonds are underlined in orange, glycosylated amino acids are underlined in blue. Red dots between amino acids indicate predicted or experimentally determined leader cleavage sites. Numbers in the end of the sequences indicate the length of peptides in amino acids. PalA pallidocin precursor, SunA sublancin precursor, Hyp putative glycocin precursor Hyp1, Hyp2 putative glycocin precursor Hyp2, EnfA4-9 enterocin F4-9 precursor, GccF glycocin F precursor
