Abstract
This Research Topic concerns bacteriocins and others RiPPs (Ribosomally synthesized and Post-translationally modified Peptides) as alternatives to antibiotics. Due to the increasing problem of antibiotic resistance globally, there is a pressing need to source such alternative antimicrobials. Here, in this editorial, we summarize the key papers that were published as part of this Research Topic, which consisted of a diverse range of research as well as review articles, pertaining to several different bacteriocins and RiPPs.
