The rising existence of antimicrobial resistance, confirms the urgent need for new antimicrobial compounds. Lantibiotics are active in a low nanomolar range and represent good compound candidates. The lantibiotic Nisin (cas 1414-45-5) is well studied, thus it is a perfect origin for exploring novel lantibiotics via mutagenesis studies. However, some human pathogens like Streptococcus agalactiae COH1 already express resistance proteins against lantibiotics like nisin.This study presents three nisin variants with mutations in the hinge-region and determine their influence on both the growth inhibition as well as the pore-forming activity. Furthermore, we analyzed the effect of these mutants on the nisin immunity proteins NisI and NisFEG from Lactococcus lactis, as well as the nisin resistance proteins SaNSR and SaNsrFP from Streptococcus agalactiae COH1.We identified the nisin variant 20NMKIV24 with an extended hinge-region, to be an excellent candidate for further studies to eventually overcome the lantibiotic resistance in human pathogens, since these proteins do not recognize this variant well.
