Properties of a Lactobacillus acidophilus Bacteriocin
Lactobacillus acidophilus Bacteriocin의 성상에 관한 연구
Abstract
Seven gtrains of Lactobacillus produce bacteriocin being active for Lacidophilus. All strains producing bacteriocin were found to be L. acidophilus except with one strain of L. gasseri. The maximum activity of bacteriocin produced by Lactobacillus strains was obtained at a middle or late stage of the log phase, or a early stage of the stationary phase. After the maximum was reached, however, the activity was rapidly decreased. The bacteriocins were inactivated easily by the treatment with proteolytic enzymes but not with nucleolytic enzymes, suggesting that the bacteriocin was proteinaceous. The bacteriocins were different from the other previously reported lactobacillus bacteriocin in their flexibility to the treatment at 10
1. L. acidophilus 균주에 작용하는 bacteriocin을 생산하는 Lactobacillus속 균 7주를 발견하였다. bacteriocin 생산균주는 1주가 L. gasseri였고, 그 외에는 모두 L. acidophilus였다. 2. 조사한 bacteriocin생산 6균주 중 5균주는 대수발육 중기 혹은 후기 내지 정상기의 초기에 최대의 bacteriocin 활성을 나타내었으나, 그 후 급격히 활성이 감소하였다. 3. 이들의 bacteriocin은 단백분해효소 처리로 용이하게 실활하는 단백질성임을 나타내었으나, 핵산분해 효소에는 저항성이었다. 또 이들의 bacteriocin은 지금 까지 보고되고 있는 Lactobacillus속의 bacteriocin과 다르며, 정도의 차는 있으나 전부 10
