Catabolism of serine by Pediococcus acidilactici and Pediococcus pentosaceus.
The ability to produce diacetyl from pyruvate and l-serine was studied in various strains of Pediococcus pentosaceus and Pediococcus acidilactici isolated from cheese. After being incubated on both substrates, only P. pentosaceus produced significant amounts of diacetyl. This property correlated with measurable serine dehydratase activity in cell extracts. A gene encoding the serine dehydratase...
متن کاملSepticemia caused by vancomycin-resistant Pediococcus acidilactici.
A case of septicemia caused by vancomycin-resistant Pediococcus acidilactici is discussed. This appears to be the first reported case of septicemia caused by this organism. The characteristics and antimicrobial susceptibilities of this organism are described.
متن کاملAntimicrobial susceptibility of Pediococcus spp. and genetic basis of macrolide resistance in Pediococcus acidilactici HM3020.
We determined the MICs of 28 antimicrobial agents against 36 clinical strains of Pediococcus spp. (25 P. acidilactici, 9 P. pentosaceus, and 2 P. urinaeequi strains). Penicillin G, imipenem, gentamicin, netilmicin, erythromycin, clindamycin, rifampin, chloramphenicol, daptomycin, and ramoplanin were the most active. All strains of P. acidilactici were susceptible to novobiocin, whereas all isol...
متن کاملInhibition of Listeria monocytogenes by using bacteriocin PA-1 produced by Pediococcus acidilactici PAC 1.0.
The bacteriocin produced by Pediococcus acidilactici PAC 1.0, previously designated PA-1 bacteriocin, was found to be inhibitory and bactericidal for Listeria monocytogenes. A dried powder prepared from PAC 1.0 culture supernatant fortified with 10% milk powder was found to contain bacteriocin activity. An MIC against L. monocytogenes and lytic effects in broth cultures were determined. Inhibit...
متن کاملPlasmid-Associated Bacteriocin Production and Sucrose Fermentation in Pediococcus acidilactici.
Production of bacteriocin activity designated pediocin PA-1 was associated with the presence of a 6.2-megadalton plasmid in Pediococcus acidilactici PAC1.0. The bacteriocin exhibited activity against P. acidilactici, P. pentosaceus, Lactobacillus plantarum, L. casei, L. bifermentans, and Leuconostoc mesenteroides subsp. dextranicum. Partial characterization of pediocin PA-1 is described. The mo...
