Current Knowledge of the Mode of Action and Immunity Mechanisms of LAB-Bacteriocins
Microorganisms, 2021 Bacteriocins produced by lactic acid bacteria (LAB-bacteriocins) may serve as alternatives for aging antibiotics. LAB-bacteriocins can be used alone, or in some cases as potentiating agents to treat bacterial infections.

The weak shall inherit: bacteriocin-mediated interactions in bacterial populations. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Evolutionary arms race plays a major role in shaping biological diversity. In microbial systems, competition often involves chemical warfare and the production of bacteriocins, narrow-spectrum toxins aimed at killing closely related strains by forming ...

Lectin-like bacteriocins from pseudomonas spp. utilise D-rhamnose containing lipopolysaccharide as a cellular receptor [PDF]
, 2014 Lectin-like bacteriocins consist of tandem monocot mannose-binding domains and display a genus-specific killing activity. Here we show that pyocin L1, a novel member of this family from Pseudomonas aeruginosa, targets susceptible strains of this species ...

Machine Learning Accelerates Crystallization for Structure Determination
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Single‐crystal x‐ray diffraction (SCXRD) is often constrained by the difficulty of obtaining suitable crystals. Here, a machine learning‐accelerated co‐crystal discovery workflow is established for a crystalline mate strategy that achieves over 95% prediction accuracy and experimentally delivers 114 co‐crystals from 120 candidates.

Isolation, identification and evaluation of bacteriocin activity of lactic acid bacteria from intestinal bacterial flora of Planiliza klunzingeri (Day, 1888) [PDF]
بومشناسی آبزیان, 2023 The study delved into bacteriocins, peptides with antibacterial properties, originating from select lactic acid bacteria. Isolating 18 such bacteria from Liza klunzingeri's intestine, their potential in bacteriocin production against food pathogens was ...
