Synthetized by a non-ribosomal peptide-synthetase (NRPS) called CesNRPS. The genes involved in the cereulide synthesis are located on a mega plasmid (270kb) known as pCER270, which is closely related to the plasmid pXO1 from B. anthracis that encodes the anthrax toxin. A small, highly heat- and acid-resistant depsipeptide toxin. ... |
