Nisin induction without nisin secretion

Microbiology, 2006
Nisin Z, a post-translationally modified antimicrobial peptide ofLactococcus lactis, is positively autoregulated by extracellular nisin via the two-component regulatory proteins NisRK. A mutation in the nisin NisT transporter renderedL. lactisincapable of nisin secretion, and nisin accumulated inside the cells.

Nisin

2020
Nisin is a 34-amino acid peptide known as a bacteriocin. It belongs to class-Ia bacteriocins known as lantibiotics. It is the most characterized and commercially used antimicrobial peptide. It was commercialized in the 1950s for the prevention of late blowing in cheese by Clostridium.

Biomedical applications of nisin [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Microbiology, 2016
Nisin is a bacteriocin produced by a group of Gram-positive bacteria that belongs to Lactococcus and Streptococcus species. Nisin is classified as a Type A (I) lantibiotic that is synthesized from mRNA and the translated peptide contains several unusual amino acids due to post-translational modifications.

Identification of Nisin-Producing Strains by Nisin-Controlled Gene Expression System

Current Microbiology, 2009
A specific method to identify nisin-producing strains was developed based on Nisin-Controlled gene Expression (NICE) vector pSec:Nuc. The plasmid pSec:Nuc was transformed into non-nisin-producing strain Lactococcus lactis NZ9000, a host commonly used for the NICE system. The generating strain L.

Nisin Biosynthesis and its Properties

Biotechnology Letters, 2005
The antimicrobial peptide, nisin, produced by several strains of Lactococcus lactis, which belongs to the Class I bacteriocins called lantibiotics, is a small (3.4 kDa), 34-amino acid, cationic, hydrophobic peptide and has the five characteristic (beta-methyl)lanthionine rings formed by significant post-translational modification. A cluster of 11 genes

Applications of the bacteriocin, nisin

Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, 1996
Nisin was first introduced commercially as a food preservative in the UK approximately 30 years ago. First established use was as a preservative in processed cheese products and since then numerous other applications in foods and beverages have been identified. It is currently recognised as a safe food preservative in approximately 50 countries.
