abstract：:It is generally accepted that surfactin, being produced by various Bacillus subtilis strains, is a cyclic lipopeptide built from the heptapeptide L-Glu-L-Leu-D-Leu-L-Val-L-Asp-D-Leu-L-Leu and a beta-hydroxy fatty acid with variable chain length of 13 - 15 carbon atoms. We investigated surfactin from Bacillus subtilis ...
