The Continuing Story of Class IIa Bacteriocins

TL;DR: The three-dimensional structures of two class IIa immunity proteins have been determined, and it has been shown that the C-terminal halves of these cytosolic four-helix bundle proteins specify whichclass IIa bacteriocin they protect against.
Journal ArticleDOI

Efficient insertional mutagenesis in lactococci and other gram-positive bacteria.

TL;DR: It is shown that the insertion sequence ISS1 with the thermosensitive replicon pG+ host to generate a mutagenic tool that can be used even in poorly transformable strains, and mutants obtained by this transposition system are food grade and can thus be used in fermentation processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Carnobacterium: positive and negative effects in the environment and in foods.

TL;DR: The genus Carnobacterium contains nine species, but only C. divergens and C. maltaromaticum are frequently isolated from natural environments and foods and can be a fish pathogen, although carnobacteria are also suggested as probiotic cultures for use in aquaculture.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lactobacillus salivarius: bacteriocin and probiotic activity.

TL;DR: This review gives an up-to-date overview of all L. salivarius strains, isolated from different origins, known as bacteriocin producing and/or potential probiotic.
