Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of bacteriocin-like inhibitors from rumen Streptococcus spp. and isolation and characterization of bovicin 255.

TL;DR: In this paper, a deferred-antagonism plating assay was used to identify peptides from 35 isolates of Streptococcus bovis that inhibited the growth of other streptococci, but none of the inhibitory activity was due to bacteriophage.
Journal ArticleDOI

In vitro inhibition activity of nisin A, nisin Z, pediocin PA-1 and antibiotics against common intestinal bacteria.

TL;DR: The sensitivity of 21 common intestinal bacteria to six antibiotics and three broad‐spectrum bacteriocins is evaluated to evaluate the sensitivity of these bacteria tonisins Z and A and pediocin PA‐1.
Journal ArticleDOI

Class I/Class IIa bacteriocin cross-resistance phenomenon in Listeria monocytogenes.

TL;DR: Variants resistant to nisin A (vA), nisin Z (vZ), pediocin PA-1 (vP), divergicin M35 (vD) and to bacteriOCin-like compounds produced by Bifidobacterium thermophilum subsp.
Journal ArticleDOI

Isolation, sequence, and expression of the gene encoding halocin H4, a bacteriocin from the halophilic archaeon Haloferax mediterranei R4.

TL;DR: The first gene to encode a haloarchaeal bacteriocin (halocin H4) has been cloned and sequenced from Haloferax mediterranei R4 and both the signal sequence in the halocIn H4 preprotein and the monocistronic halH4 gene have some unusual features.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluation of colicins for inhibitory activity against diarrheagenic Escherichia coli strains, including serotype O157:H7.

TL;DR: There is potential for using colicins in foods and agriculture to inhibit sensitive diarrheagenic E. coli strains, including serotype O157:H7, which was not restricted to strains of a single clone or serotype.
