Leuconostoc lactis strain APC 3969 produces a new variant of cyclic bacteriocin leucocyclicin Q and displays potent anti-Clostridium perfringens activity [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Clostridium perfringens is an important foodborne pathogen that produces diverse toxins and is often associated with foodborne gastroenteritis. In this sense, novel biopreservatives with anti-C. perfringens activity are of interest.

Ferredoxin containing bacteriocins suggest a novel mechanism of iron uptake in Pectobacterium spp [PDF]

, 2012
In order to kill competing strains of the same or closely related bacterial species, many bacteria produce potent narrow-spectrum protein antibiotics known as bacteriocins.

Circular and L50-like leaderless enterocins share a common ABC-transporter immunity gene

BMC Genomics, 2023
Microbes live within complex communities of interacting populations, either free-living in waters and soils or symbionts of animals and plants. Their interactions include the production of antimicrobial peptides (bacteriocins) to antagonize competitors ...
