Draft Genome Sequence of Streptococcus equinus (Streptococcus bovis) HC5, a Lantibiotic Producer from the Bovine Rumen
نویسندگان
چکیده
Streptococcus equinus (Streptococcus bovis) HC5 is a bacteriocinogenic lactic acid bacterium with simple growth requirements. The draft genome sequence of S. equinus HC5 consists of 1,846,241 bp, with a G+C content of 37.04%. In silico analysis indicated that S. equinus HC5 might be useful to control bacteria that are detrimental to livestock animals.

Bovicin HC5, a lantibiotic produced by Streptococcus bovis HC5, catalyzes the efflux of intracellular potassium but not ATP.
Bovicin HC5, a broad-spectrum lantibiotic produced by Streptococcus bovis HC5, catalyzed the efflux of intracellular potassium from Streptococcus bovis JB1, a sensitive strain. The level of ATP also decreased, but this decline appeared to be caused by the activity of the F(1)F(0) ATPase rather than efflux per se.
متن کاملThe ability of non-bacteriocin producing Streptococcus bovis strains to bind and transfer bovicin HC5 to other sensitive bacteria.
Streptococcus bovis HC5 produces a broad spectrum lantibiotic (bovicin HC5), but S. bovis JB1 does not have antimicrobial activity. Preliminary experiments revealed an anomaly. When S. bovis JB1 cells were washed in stationary phase S. bovis HC5 cell-free culture supernatant, the S. bovis JB1 cells were subsequently able to inhibit hyper-ammonia producing ruminal bacteria (Clostridium stickland...
متن کاملBovicin HC5, a bacteriocin from Streptococcus bovis HC5.
Previous work indicated that Streptococcus bovis HC5 had significant antibacterial activity, and even nisin-resistant S. bovis JB1 cells could be strongly inhibited. S. bovis HC5 inhibited a variety of Gram-positive bacteria and the spectrum of activity was similar to monensin, a commonly used feed additive. The crude extracts (ammonium sulfate precipitation) were inactivated by Pronase E and t...
متن کاملChemical composition and nutrient degradability in elephant grass silage inoculated with Streptococcus bovis isolated from the rumen.
The objective of the present study was to assess the chemical and bromatological composition and in situ degradability of elephant grass silages inoculated with Streptococcus bovis isolated from cattle rumen. A complete randomized design was used with four treatments and six replications: elephant grass silage, elephant grass silage inoculated with 10(6) CFU/g Streptococcus bovis JB1 strains; e...
متن کاملEffects of Streptococcus bovis Isolated from Bovine Rumen on the Fermentation Characteristics and Nutritive Value of Tanzania Grass Silage
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of Streptococcus bovis on the fermentation characteristics and nutritive value of Tanzania grass silage. Tanzania grass was chopped and left untreated (U) or treated with Streptococcus bovis JB1 at 1 × 10(6) colony-forming units per gram (cfu/g) of fresh forage or Streptococcus bovis HC5 at 1 × 10(6) cfu/g of fresh forage and packed into sixtuplicate lab...
