==Overview==
==Overview==
Nisin is a posttranslationally modified antimicrobial peptide that is, widely used as a food preservative. It contains five cyclic thioethers of, varying sizes that are installed by a single enzyme, NisC. Reported here, are the in vitro reconstitution of the cyclization process and the x-ray, crystal structure of the NisC enzyme. The structure reveals similarities, in fold and substrate activation with mammalian farnesyl transferases, suggesting that human homologs of NisC posttranslationally modify a, cysteine of a protein substrate.
