| Abstract: | Background Bacteriophages infecting lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are widely acknowledged as the main cause of milk fermentation failures.
In this study, we describe the surface-expression as well as the secretion of two functional llama heavy-chain antibody fragments,
one binding to the major capsid protein (MCP) and the other to the receptor-binding proteins (RBP) of the lactococcal bacteriophage
p2, by lactobacilli in order to neutralise lactococcal phages. |
