CLASSIFICATION AND MECHANISM OF BACTERIOCIN INDUCED CELL DEATH: A REVIEW

Multidrug resistance and toxicity associated with antimicrobial agents among pathogenic bacteria leading to a surge in morbidity mortality humans need bold proclamation the area of research development new biological agents. The maximum propitious possibility we can see bacteriocins. Bacteriocins are ribosomally synthesized peptides produced by gram-positive gram-negative which evince wide narrow activity spectrum. They survive highly competitive microbial environment. attack their targeted bacterial cells through different mechanisms. Understanding mechanisms that induced cell death will enable researchers develop methodologies limit this life-threatening problem. Therefore, study, provide updated information on number bacteriocins produced, potential producers mode action against relevant bacteria.
