Analysis of balhimycin production, muropeptide composition, and PG precursors in A. balhimycina WT (1), A. balhimycina ΔvnlRAb (2), A. balhimycina [vnlRAb] (3), and A. balhimycina ΔvnlRAb [vnlRAb] (4). (A) Production of balhimycin measured by HPLC (n = 5). (B) HPLC/MS chromatogram of the muropeptides (positive mode). The first bracket embraces the peaks representing muropeptide monomers, the second the muropeptide dimers. (C) Extracted ion chromatograms of the negative mode from the PG precursors isolated from cells grown in R5 (balhimycin production) and in TSB (no balhimycin production). d-Lac, Pentapeptide precursors ending on d-Ala-d-Lac 1194 m/z at retention time ∼18 min. d-Ala, Pentapeptide precursors ending on d-Ala-d-Ala 1193 m/z at retention time ∼12 min. HPLC, high-performance liquid chromatography; MS, mass spectrometry; PG, peptidoglycan; WT, wild type.
