Microcin E492 is an unmodified peptide related in structure to colicin V

Antimicrob Agents Chemother. 2002 Jan;46(1):229-30. doi: 10.1128/AAC.46.1.229-230.2002.

Abstract

The pore-forming microcin E492 was purified by solid-phase extraction and reversed-phase high-pressure liquid chromatography. Its molecular mass was 7,886 Da. The entire 84-amino-acid sequence was determined. There is no postranslational modification in the secreted microcin, and the sequence has homologies with the sequence of the microcin colicin V.
