Abstract Commensal bacteria produce antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) to maintain microbiome homeostasis, yet the traits underlying this resilience and their translation into biotherapeutics remain understudied. Phosphorylated lantibiotics (pLANs) are a recently identified class of ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptides (RiPPs), with dual antimicrobial and pro-immune activities.
