Plantaricin 423 is a class IIa bacteriocin produced by Lactobacillus plantarum isolated from sorghum beer. It has been previously determined that plantaricin 423 is encoded by a plasmid designated pPLA4, which is now completely sequenced. The plantaricin 423 operon shares high sequence similarity with the operons of coagulin, pediocin PA-1, and pediocin AcH, with small differences in the DNA sequence encoding the mature bacteriocin peptide and the immunity protein. Apart from the bacteriocin operon, no significant sequence similarity could be detected between the DNA or translated sequence of pPLA4 and the available DNA or translated sequences of the plasmids encoding pediocin AcH, pediocin PA-1, and coagulin, possibly indicating a different origin. In addition to the bacteriocin operon, sequence analysis of pPLA4 revealed the presence of two open reading frames (ORFs). ORF1 encodes a putative mobilization (Mob) protein that is homologous to the pMV158 superfamily of mobilization proteins. Highest sequence similarity occurred between this protein and the Mob protein of L. plantarum NCDO 1088. ORF2 encodes a putative replication protein that revealed low sequence similarity to replication proteins of plasmids pLME300 from Lactobacillus fermentum and pYIT356 from Lactobacillus casei. The immunity protein of plantaricin 423 contains 109 amino acids. Although plantaricin 423 shares high sequence similarity with the pediocin PA-1 operon, no cross-reactivity was recorded between the immunity proteins of plantaricin 423 and pediocin PA-1. 相似文献

Pediocin PD-1, produced by Pediococcus damnosus NCFB 1832, is inhibitory to several food spoilage bacteria and food-borne pathogens. However, pediocin PD-1 is not active against other Pediococcus spp. and differs in this respect to other pediocins produced by Pediococcus acidilactici and Pediococcus pentosaceus. Production of pediocin PD-1 starts during early growth and reaches a plateau at the end of exponential growth. Pediocin PD-1 was partially purified and its size was determined by tricine-SDS-PAGE as ≈ 3·5 kDa. The isoelectric point (pI) of pediocin PD-1 is ≈ 3·5, as determined with the Rotofor electrofocusing cell (BioRad). Pediocin PD-1 is heat-resistant (10 min at 121°C) and remains active after 30 min of incubation at pH 2–10. Pediocin PD-1 is resistant to treatment with pepsin, papain, α-chemotrypsin and trypsin, but not Proteinase K. Pediocin PD-1 is bactericidal against sensitive cells of Oenococcus oeni (previously Leuconostoc oenos ). 相似文献

Factors affecting the production of an antimicrobial agent, plantaricin F, by Lactobacillus plantarum BF001 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Lactobacillus plantarum BF001 produced plantaricin F in MRS broth but it was detected only after ca a 50-fold concentration. Growth on MRS broth and appearance of plantaricin F were similar under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. No growth occurred at pH 3 or at 4°C. Plantaricin F appeared first at early stationary growth phase (24 h) and was stable thereafter (pH 2). Amounts found in liquid cultures were ca 2–3 times higher than those from solidified MRS medium, and specific activities were ca 6 times higher in liquid culture (48 h). Maximal amounts of plantaricin F were found (48 h) when medium had an initial pH of 4 and growth was at 30°C. Under these conditions, cell growth and fermentation were partially uncoupled. Plantaricin F was not produced endogenously, organic nutrients were necessary. A molecular weight range of 500–3500 Da was indicated. Plantaricin F appears to be a secondary metabolite. 相似文献

Lactobacillus plantarum BFE 905 isolated from 'Waldorf' salad produced a bacteriocin termed plantaricin D which was active against Lact. sake and Listeria monocytogenes strains. Plantaricin D was heat stable, retaining activity after heating at 121 °C. The bacteriocin was inactivated by α-chymotrypsin, trypsin, pepsin and proteinase K, but not by papain and other non-proteolytic enzymes tested. Plantaricin D was stable at pH values ranging from 2·0 to 10·0. The bacteriocin inhibited growth of L. monocytogenes in automated turbidity assays. Although Lact. plantarum BFE 905 harboured plasmids ranging in size from 3 to 55 kilobase pairs, loss of bacteriocin production could not be correlated with plasmid loss. A role for bacteriocin-producing Lact. plantarum of vegetable origin in assuring the safety of vegetable foods is suggested. 相似文献

The production and stability of pediocin N5p from Pediococcus pentosaceus , isolated from wine, were examined in grape juice medium. Maximum growth and higher titre (4000 U ml-1 ) were observed at a initial pH of 7·5 and 30°C. The activity of the inhibitory substance was stable between pH values from 2·0 to 5·0 at 4° and 30°C. At pH 10·0 it was completely inactivated. When submitted to 30 min at 80°, 100° and 115°C, maximal stability was observed at pH 2·0. Ethanol up to 10% did not affect pediocin activity at acid pH, nor did 40–80 mg 1-1 SO2 , independently or combined with different ethanol concentrations, affect inhibitory activity. 相似文献

Parameters affecting the adsorption of plantaricin 423, a bacteriocin produced by Lactobacillus plantarum 423 isolated from sorghum beer 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Plantaricin 423 is bactericidal to logarithmic and stationary-phase cells of Enterococcus sp. HKLHS and L. sakei DSM 20017. Detection of extracellular DNA and beta-galactosidase suggests that the mode of action is most probably by destabilizing of the cell membrane. Adsorption of plantaricin 423 to target cells ranged from 17% for Streptococcus caprinus ATCC 700066 to 67% for Lactobacillus plantarum LMG 13556, Lactobacillus curvatus DF38, Listeria innocua LMG 13568 and Lactobacillus sakei DSM 20017. Treatment of Enterococcus sp. HKLHS and L. sakei DSM 20017 with Triton X-100, Triton X-114 and chloroform increased the adsorption of plantaricin. 相似文献

Activity of plantaricin SA6, a bacteriocin produced by Lactobacillus plantarum SA6 isolated from fermented sausage 总被引:3,自引:2,他引:1
N. REKHIF, A ATRIH AND G. LEFEBVRE. 1995. Plantaricin SA6, a bacteriocin produced by Lactobacillus plantarum SA6, exhibited an inhibitory action against several mesophilic lactobacilli. It was stable at 90–100°C at pH 2–4 and it remained stable in the presence of several organic solvents, urea or β-mercaptoethanol. Plantaricin SA6 bound specifically to the cell surface of only plantaricin SA6-sensitive bacteria. The putative receptors are not destroyed by different hydrolytic enzymes added to the phosphate buffer. Plantaricin SA6 acted as a bactericidal agent lysing sensitive strains, that became more permeable to ortho-nitro-phenol-β-galactoside and lost their intracellular K+ ions and u.v.-absorbing materials. Both the adsorption and lethal action of plantaricin SA6 were maximal between pH 4 and 7, but the range of temperature tested (5–37βC) had no effect. Ions (of several salts such as MgCl2 ) inhibited the binding of plantaricin SA6 and protected cells against bacteriocin action. 相似文献

Plantaricin 423, produced by Lactobacillus plantarum 423, was encapsulated in nanofibers that were produced by the electrospinning of 18% (w/v) polyethylene oxide (200 000 Da). The average diameter of the nanofibers was 288 nm. Plantaricin 423 activity decreased from 51 200 AU/ml to 25 600 AU/ml and from 204 800 AU/ml to 51 200 AU/ml after electrospinning, as determined against Lactobacillus sakei DSM 20017 and Enterococcus faecium HKLHS, respectively. Cells of L. plantarum 423 encapsulated in nanofibers decreased from 2.3 × 1010 cfu/ml before electrospinning to 4.7 × 108 cfu/ml thereafter. Cells entrapped in the nanofibers continued to produce plantaricin 423. This is the first report on the encapsulation of a bacteriocin and cells of L. plantarum in nanofibers. The method may be used to design a drug delivery system for bacteriocins and the encapsulation of probiotic lactic acid bacteria. The technology is currently being optimized. 相似文献

Bacteria isolated from radish were identified as Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris R and their bacteriocin was designated lactococcin R. Lactococcin R was sensitive to some proteolytic enzymes (proteinase-K, pronase-E, proteases, pepsin, α-chymotrypsin) but was resistant to trypsin, papain, catalase, lysozyme and lipase, organic solvents, or heating at 90 °C for 15, 30 and 60 min, or 121 °C for 15 min. Lactococcin R remained active after storage at −20 and −70 °C for 3 months and after exposure to a pH of 2–9. The molecular weight of lactococcin R was about 2·5 kDa. Lactococcin R was active against many food-borne pathogenic and food spoilage bacteria such as Clostridium, Staphylococcus, Listeria, Bacillus, Micrococcus, Enterococcus, Lactobacillus, Leuconostoc, Streptococcus and Pediococcus spp., but was not active against any Gram-negative bacteria. Lactococcin R was produced during log phase and reached a maximum activity (1600 AU ml−1 ) at early stationary phase. The highest lactococcin R production was obtained in MRS broth with 0·5% glucose, at 6·5–7·0 initial pH values, 30 °C temperature and 18–24-h incubation times. Lactococcin R adsorbed maximally to its heat-killed producing cells at pH 6–7 (95%). Crude lactococcin R at 1280 AU ml−1 was bactericidal, reducing colony counts of Listeria monocytogenes by 99·98% in 3 h. Lactococcin R should be useful as a biopreservative to prevent growth of food-borne pathogenic and food spoilage bacteria in ready-to-eat, dairy, meat, poultry and other food products. Lactococcin R differs from nisin in having a lower molecular weight, 2·5 kDa vs 3·4 kDa, and in being sensitive to pepsin and α-chymotrypsin to which nisin is resistant. 相似文献

Samples of egg melange taken from an egg packing station contained an average of 7·3 x 104 organisms/ml which survived laboratory pasteurization at 65°C for 3 min. Many of the organisms surviving pasteurization were found to be coryneform bacteria related to Microbacterium lacticum which could be differentiated into several groups. The remainder were a miscellaneous collection of unidentified cocci and coccobacilli and some Bacillus spp. The coryneform bacteria were shown to be the most heat-resistant isolates with negligible loss of viability after 60 min at 65°C, At least two of the representative strains were very heat-resistant, 0·01% surviving 20 and 38 min at 80°C in phosphate buffer at pH 7·1. Growth tests showed that none of the isolates grew at 5°C after 10 d incubation but those capable of growing most rapidly at 10° and 15°C were also the most heat-resistant. Such strains had a doubling time at 15°C of between 6 and 8 h in whole egg. Freezing the coryneform bacteria in liquid whole egg at –18°C had negligible effect on viability or heat-resistance at 65°C. 相似文献

Pediocin SA-1, an antimicrobial peptide from Pediococcus acidilactici NRRL B5627: production conditions, purification and characterization 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Fermentation broths of Pediococcus acidilactici NRRL B5627 exhibited a certain antimicrobial activity due to a bacteriocin produced during early growth and until the stationary phase of growth was reached (at optimum of 60% dissolved oxygen saturation). Its size was determined by electrospray ionization mass spectrometric analysis as 3.660 kDa. N-terminal sequencing showed that the bacteriocin had 19 amino acid residues in the order KYYGXNGVXTXGKHSXVDX. The purified bacteriocin is similar to pediocins isolated by various Pediococci and therefore, it belongs to the class IIa of bacteriocins and is thus designated pediocin SA-1. Sensitivity of the purified pediocin to various storage temperatures and enzyme treatments was examined. Purified pediocin SA-1 is heat stable for up to 60 min at 121 °C. Pediocin SA-1 is inhibitory to several food-borne pathogens and food spoilage bacteria. It appears to be significantly more effective against Listeria spp. compared to pediocin PD-1 produced by P. damnosus. The mode of action of the purified bacteriocin appears to be bactericidal. 相似文献

Survival, recoverability and sublethal injury of two strains of Listeria monocytogenes , Scott A and an environmental strain KM, on exposure to sea water at 12·8 or 20·8 °C was determined using in situ diffusion chambers. Plate counts were used to assess recoverability and injury while 5-cyano-2,3-ditolyl tetrazolium chloride (CTC) reduction was used to determine respiratory activity. T90 values (times for 10-fold decreases in numbers of recoverable cells) on non-selective medium (trypticase soya agar with 0·6% yeast extract) at 12·8 and 20·8 °C were 61·7 and 69·2 h for L. monocytogenes Scott A, and 103·0 and 67·0 h for L. monocytogenes KM, respectively. On selective medium (Oxford agar), T90 values at 12·8 and 20·8 °C were 60·6 and 56·9 h for L. monocytogenes Scott A, and 83·0 and 65·9 h for L. monocytogenes KM, respectively. With Scott A, the percentage of sublethally injured cells at 12·8 and 20·8 °C was 1·7 and 17·7%, respectively, while for KM the values were 19·0 and 1·6%, respectively. The fraction of cells reducing CTC but which were not recoverable on plating progressively increased on exposure to sea water. Listeria monocytogenes KM challenged at 58 °C showed an apparent increase in heat resistance after exposure to sea water at 20·8 °C for 7 d ( D 58 = 2·64 min) compared with before exposure ( D 58 = 1·24). This increase in thermal resistance was not apparent at temperatures greater than 63 °C, and analysis of the best-fit regression lines fitted to the thermal data obtained from the two cell populations indicated that their thermal resistance was not significantly different ( P > 0·05) over the temperature range tested (58–62 °C). 相似文献

Purification, partial characterization and plasmid-linkage of pediocin SJ-1, a bacteriocin produced by Pediococcus acidilactici 总被引:10,自引:2,他引:8
Pediococcus acidilactici SJ-1, isolated from a naturally-fermented meat product, produced an antibacterial agent active against selected strains of Lactobacillus spp., Clostridium perfringens and Listeria monocytogenes. The agent was bactericidal against sensitive indicators, and sensitive to proteolytic enzymes; it was identified as a bacteriocin, and was designated as pediocin SJ-1. It was stable over a wide pH range (3–9), and apparently most stable in the lower part of that range. At pH 3.6, pediocin SJ-1 was stable at heat-processing temperatures within the range 65–121°C; its activity decreased significantly, however, when it was heated at pH 7.0. The activity of pediocin SJ-1 on sensitive indicator cells was lost in the presence of α-amylase, suggesting that it contains a glyco moiety, necessary for its antibacterial action.
Native pediocin SJ-1 exists in the form of monomers and aggregates (with molecular weights in the range 80–150 kDa). Pediocin SJ-1 was purified 262-fold by direct application of cell-free supernatant fluids to a cation-exchange chromatography column, and was resolved by SDS-PAGE as a single peptide band with a MW of ca 4 kDa. The original pediocin SJ-1-producing strain (bac+ ) harbours three plasmids of 4.6, 23.5, and 45.7 MDa. Production of pediocin SJ-1, but not immunity to SJ-1, is associated with the 4.6 MDa plasmid. 相似文献

A net purification of 9·46-, 18·6- and 16·7-fold for filter paper (FP) hydrolytic activity, carboxymethyl (CM) cellulase and β-glucosidase, respectively was achieved through ion exchange and gel chromatographies. The purified enzyme preparation showed an optimal pH of 5·0 for CM cellulase and 5·5 for the other two components. The enzyme activities increased up to 60°–65°C for the three enzyme components and they were stable at 30° or 40°C and pH 4·5 to 5·0 after 20–30 min treatment. The four enzyme components, that is, two FP activities (unadsorbed and adsorbed), a CM cellulase and a β-glucosidase, had Km values of 47·6 mg, 33·3 mg, 4·0 mg and 0·18 mmol/l with V max of 4, 1·28, 66·5 and 1·28 units per mg protein. The molecular weights as determined with SDS-PAGE were found to be 44000, 38000, 55000 and 63000 for the above four enzyme components in the same sequence. A distinct type of synergistic action was observed between these components by their action on dewaxed cotton. Glycerol at 1% strongly repressed the formation of all the cellulolytic enzymes. The role of proteolytic enzymes in in vitro inactivation of cellulases was not apparent. 相似文献

Phenotypic sex differentiation of blue tilapia under constant and fluctuating thermal regimes and its adaptive and evolutionary implications 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Oreochromis aureus exposed during the first 28 days of exogenous feeding to constant 35° C, or fluctuating temperatures (day at 35° C, night at 27° C, and vice versa) showed significantly ( P <0·05) faster growth, least size heterogeneity and better survival rates than siblings under constant 27° C. Constant high temperatures had a strong masculinizing effect (M: F sex ratios of 7·33–19·00: 1·00 v . 0·75–0·82: 1·00 in controls reared at 27° C). Fluctuating temperatures had less masculinizing potential but still produced sex ratios significantly skewed to the detriment of females (M: F sex ratios of 2·33–11·50: 1·00). This suggests that ambient temperature may have represented a sufficient environmental pressure for the selection of thermolabile sex-determinism in this species, and presumably in other Oreochromis spp. The evolutionary advantage of thermosensitivity in Oreochromis spp. is discussed, considering a framework where individual advantages oppose, to some degree, to the population or species interest. 相似文献

Toxicity of crude extracellular products of Aeromonas hydrophila in tilapia, Tilapianilotica 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Extracellular products (ECP) secreted from Aeromonas hydrophila with haemolytic andproteolytic activity were studied with respect to temperature and time of incubation as well as thelethal toxicity on tilapia, Tilapia nilotica . The highest production of the haemolysin productwas achieved when Aer. hydrophila was grown at 35°C for 30 h. Tilapia erythrocytewas found to be more susceptible than sheep erythrocyte for determining the haemolytic activity.The haemolytic activity against tilapia erythrocyte was completely inactivated after heating theECP at 60°C for 10 min or 55°C for 15 min. The proteolytic activity was maximized whenthe bacterium was grown at 30°C for 36 h. Complete inactivation of the protease enzyme wasperformed after heating the ECP at 80°C for 10 min or 70°C for 15 min. Aeromonashydrophila was found to produce haemolytic and proteolytic exotoxin lethal to tilapia (LD50 2·1 × 104 cell/fish), as well as heat stable unknown virulent factors thatwere responsible for 20% mortality. The lethality of ECP was decreased by heating andcompletely inactivated by boiling at 100°C for 10 min. 相似文献

Twenty-six strains of Lactobacillus plantarum isolated from green olive fermentations were tested for cross-antagonistic activities in an agar drop diffusion test. Cell-free supernatants from four of these strains were shown to inhibit the growth of at least one of the L. plantarum indicator strains. L. plantarum LPCO10 provided the broadest spectrum of activity and was selected for further studies. The inhibitory compound from this strain was active against some gram-positive bacteria, including clostridia and propionibacteria as well as natural competitors of L. plantarum in olive fermentation brines. In contrast, no activity against gram-negative bacteria was detected. Inhibition due to the effect of organic acids, hydrogen peroxide, or bacteriophages was excluded. Since the inhibitory activity of the active supernatant was lost after treatment with various proteolytic enzymes, this substance could be classified as a bacteriocin, designated plantaricin S. Plantaricin S was also sensitive to glycolytic and lipolytic enzymes, suggesting that it was a glycolipoprotein. It exhibited a bactericidal and nonbacteriolytic mode of action against indicator cells. This bacteriocin was heat stable (60 min at 100 degrees C), active in a pH range of 3.0 to 7.0, and also stable in crude culture supernatants during storage. Ultrafiltration studies indicated that plantaricin S occurred as multimolecular aggregates and that the size of the smallest active form is between 3 and 10 kDa. In sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels, plantaricin S migrated as a peptide of ca. 2.5 kDa. Maximum production of plantaricin S was obtained in a fermentor system in unregulated pH and log-phase cultures of L. plantarum LPCO10 in MRS broth plus 4% NaCl. In these culture conditions, a second bacteriocin (designated plantaricin T) was produced in late-stationary-phase cultures of L. plantarum LPCO10. On the basis of its biological activity, its sensitivity to various enzymes, and its molecular weight (lower than that of plantaricin S) as assessed in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, plantaricin T appeared different from plantaricin S. Curing experiments with L. plantarum LPCO10 resulted in the appearance of variants that no longer produced either of the two bacteriocins but that were still immune to both of them. 相似文献

An alkaline xylanase-producing alkaliphilic Bacillus sp. AR-009 was isolated from analkaline soda lake in Ethiopia. The enzyme was optimally active at pH 9 and was stable over abroad pH range. The optimum temperature for xylanase activity, assayed at pH 9, was60°–65°C. Measured at pH 8 and 9, the enzyme had good stability at 55° and60°C. At both pH values, over 80% of its original activity was retained after heating for2·5 h at 55°C. At 60°C, the enzyme maintained 63% of its original activity after2·5 h incubation while at pH 9 it retained 54% of its original activity after 1 h heating. Theseproperties qualify the enzyme to be novel and potentially important for application in someindustrial processes. 相似文献

Effect of the ethanol content of beer on the heat resistance of a spoilage Lactobacillus 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
D -values of a heterofermentative beer spoilage lactobacillus were measured at 55°C, 60°C and 65°C in beers containing <0·05% to 4·4% v/v ethanol. Z -values for the different beers varied between 9·17 and 12·13°C. At each temperature an increase in ethanol reduced the measured D -value. The maximum, 5·01 min was observed in alcohol-free beer (<0·05%) at 55°C and the minimum, 0·31 min, at 60°C and 65°C in beer containing 4·4% ethanol. D -values could be increased by prior growth in the presence of ethanol. They could be reduced by adding ethanol to alcohol-free beer or by increasing its hop extract content. The implications for the pasteurization of low-alcohol beers are discussed. 相似文献

Aims: This study evaluated the effect of temperature (0–38°C) and water activity ( a w : 0·87–0·99) on the lag phase prior to germination and the percentage of germination over time for Monilinia laxa , Monilinia fructicola and Monilinia fructigena .
Methods and Results: More than 80% of viable conidia germinated at 25°C and 0·99 aw within 2 h for M. fructicola and M. fructigena and 4 h for M. laxa . There was no germination at 38°C, and all three Monilinia spp. germinated at 0°C. At the lowest a w (0·87), none of the Monilinia spp. was able to germinate at any of the incubation temperatures studied. Whereas at 0·90 a w , conidia were only able to germinate at 15, 25 and 30°C for the three species studied, except for M. fructicola at 15°C. In contrast, at 0·95, 0·97 and 0·99 a w , germination occurred at all studied temperatures less 38°C. Generally, the lag phase was longer at low levels of a w (0·90–095), and differences were more evident as temperatures were far from the optimum (0–5°C).
Conclusions: Germination and lag phase period were markedly influenced by temperature and aw , and in general when conditions of temperature and a w were suboptimal, the lag phase was longer and the percentage of germination was lower.
Significance and Impact of the Study: Knowledge of the germination requirements of this fungus is important in order to understand their behaviour in natural situations and to provide baseline data required for the construction of new prediction models. Our study might be used to develop a predictive model to understand and control the disease caused by Monilinia spp. 相似文献
