The actinomycete Microbispora sp. ATCC‐PTA‐5024 produces the lantibiotic NAI-107, which has been attracting the attention as a potential drug candidate. In fact, NAI-107 is active against vancomycin resistant Gram-positive pathogens and its in vivo efficacy was confirmed using animal models. Although NAI-107 has a high potential as a therapeutic drug, the producer strain is only poorly characterized. Thus, high throughput studies may give some insights in order to investigate biochemical capability, metabolic pathways and regulation of NAI-107 production. A comprehensive proteomic-based study was performed to unravel changes in global protein expression.
