Genomic analyses of pneumococci reveal a wide diversity of bacteriocins - including pneumocyclicin, a novel circular bacteriocin. [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2015 BACKGROUND: One of the most important global pathogens infecting all age groups is Streptococcus pneumoniae (the 'pneumococcus'). Pneumococci reside in the paediatric nasopharynx, where they compete for space and resources, and one competition strategy ...
