Analysis of the two-peptide bacteriocins lactococcin G and enterocin 1071 by site-directed mutagenesis.

The two peptides (Lcn-alpha and Lcn-beta) of the two-peptide bacteriocin lactococcin G (Lcn) were changed by stepwise site-directed mutagenesis into the corresponding peptides (Ent-alpha and Ent-beta) of the two-peptide bacteriocin enterocin 1071 (Ent), and the potencies and specificities of the various hybrid constructs were determined. Both Lcn and, to a lesser extent, Ent were active against...

The lactococcin G immunity protein recognizes specific regions in both peptides constituting the two-peptide bacteriocin lactococcin G.

Lactococcin G and enterocin 1071 are two homologous two-peptide bacteriocins. Expression vectors containing the gene encoding the putative lactococcin G immunity protein (lagC) or the gene encoding the enterocin 1071 immunity protein (entI) were constructed and introduced into strains sensitive to one or both of the bacteriocins. Strains that were sensitive to lactococcin G became immune to lac...

Biochemical and genetic characterization of the two-peptide bacteriocin enterocin 1071 produced by Enterococcus faecalis FAIR-E 309.

The structural genes for the two-peptide bacteriocin enterocin 1071 (Ent1071) in Enterococcus faecalis FAIR-E 309 were cloned. DNA sequence analysis showed that the enterocin 1071A (Ent1071A) peptide of strain FAIR-E 309 differed by two amino acids from the Ent1071A reported for E. faecalis BFE 1071 (E. Balla, L. M. T. Dicks, M. Du Toit, M. J. van der Merwe, and W. H. Holzapfel, Appl. Environ. ...

Construction and Expression of Hepatitis B Surface Antigen Escape Variants within the "a" Determinant by Site Directed Mutagenesis

Background: The antibody response to hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) controls hepatitis B virus infection. The "a" determinant of HBsAg is the most important target for protective antibody response, diagnosis and immunoprophylaxis. Mutations in this area may induce immune escape mutants and affect the performance of HBsAg assays. Objectives: To construct clinically relevant recombinant muta...
