Bacteriocins: Novel Solutions to Age Old Spore-Related Problems? [PDF]
Bacteriocins are ribosomally synthesized antimicrobial peptides produced by bacteria, which have the ability to kill or inhibit other bacteria. Many bacteriocins are produced by food grade lactic acid bacteria (LAB).

Bacterial warfare is associated with virulence and antimicrobial resistance [PDF]
Bacteria have evolved a diverse array of mechanisms to inhibit and kill competitors. However, why some bacteria carry such weapons while others do not remains poorly understood.

Lectin-Like Bacteriocins [PDF]
Bacteria produce a diverse array of antagonistic compounds to restrict growth of microbial rivals. Contributing to this warfare are bacteriocins: secreted antibacterial peptides, proteins and multi-protein complexes.

DETERMINATION OF OPTIMUM CULTIVATION CONDITIONS FOR SYNTHESIS OF BACTERIOCINS WITH AND STRAINS AND THEIR STABILITY INVESTIGATION [PDF]
Bacteriocins are substances of protein nature which have antimicrobial properties. Due to the wide spectrum of antagonistic activity which bacteriocins of some microorganisms have, they have the potential for being used as components of antibacterial ...

Wild-type Lactococcus lactis producing bacteriocin-like prophage lysins
IntroductionLactococcus is a genus of lactic acid bacteria used in the dairy industry as a starter. Lactococci have been found to produce altogether more than 40 different bacteriocins, ribosomally synthesized antimicrobial proteins.

A Review of Structural Characteristics and Structure-Function Relationship of Two-Peptide (Class IIb) Bacteriocins [PDF]
The two-peptide (class IIb) bacteriocins are generally thermostable small-molecule (< 10 kDa) two-component antimicrobial peptides produced by Gram-positive bacteria.
