Classification system for bacteriocins [
92].
| Classes | Characteristics |
| Class I | Lantibiotics | Class Ia | Small (19–38 amino acids), elongated, positively charged peptides that form pores | Class Ib | Globular peptides that interfere with essential enzymes |
| Class II | Nonlanthionine containing-bacteriocins | Class IIa | Pediocin-like peptides that contain the YGNGVXCXXXXVXV consensus sequence in their N-terminal | Class IIb | Two-peptide bacteriocins, require both peptides for activity | Class IIc | Cyclic peptides, N- and C-terminal of peptides are covalently linked | Class IId | Single non-pediocin like peptides |
