Gene loci involved in carnobacteriocin B2 and BM1 production and immunity. The locus in the plasmid pCP40 (left) contains the cbnS-cbnK-cbnR three-component regulatory system gene cassette (genes colored in gray), cbnT and cbnD, encoding a peptide autoinducer and peptide antibiotic secretion/processing system, cbnB2, encoding the precursor of carnobacteriocin B2, and cbiB2, encoding carnobacteriocin B2 immunity protein. The chromosomal locus (right) includes cbnBM1, encoding the precursor of carnobacteriocin BM1, and cbiBM1, encoding carnobacteriocin BM1 immunity protein. The positions of the promoters PS, PB, and PBM1 are shown.
