Bacitracin A, EvoPure® is a highly purified form of Bacitracin A. Bacitracin A is the most active and potent Bacitracin fraction. Our Bacitracins are bioactive, non-toxic congeners that are nontoxic to eukaryotic cell lines. Bacitracin A can also be used as an analytical reference standard.
Bacitracin is a polypeptide antibiotic, composed of related cyclic peptides made by Bacillus licheniformis first isolated in 1945 from the 'Tracy I' variety (ATCC 10716). It was isolated by Balbina Johnson, a bacteriologist at Columbia University. Bacitracin can be synthesized via nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPSs). The three-enzyme operon is called BacABC.
