The interaction of nisin, a membrane-interacting cationic polypeptide, with membrane-mimicking micelles of zwitterionic dodecylphosphocholine and of anionic sodium dodecylsulphate was studied. Direct contacts have been established through the observation of NOEs between nisin and micelle protons. Spin-labeled DOXYL-stearic acids were incorporated into the two micellar systems. From the paramagn...
Biodegradable polylactic acid (PLA) polymer was evaluated for its application as a material for antimicrobial food packaging. PLA films were incorporated with nisin to for control of foodborne pathogens. Antimicrobial activity of PLA/nisin films against Listeria monocytogenes, Escherichia coli O157:H7, and Salmonella Enteritidis were evaluated in culture media and liquid foods (orange juice and...
Lantibiotics are potent antimicrobial peptides. Nisin is the most prominent member and contains five crucial lanthionine rings. Some clinically relevant bacteria express membrane-associated resistance proteins that proteolytically inactivate nisin. However, substrate recognition and specificity of these proteins is unknown. Here, we report the first three-dimensional structure of a nisin resist...
Nisin is a class I bacteriocin produced by Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis [3]. It has been found to inhibit the viability of Grampositive bacteria. Bactericidal activity of nisin against S. mutans leads to inhibition of insoluble glucan formation, and nisin does not appear to be toxic to normal human gingival fibroblasts and epithelial cells [4,5]. Furthermore, Tong et al. [6] investigated th...
Histidine kinase (HK) NisK is well known to sense lantibiotic nisin for regulating the biosynthesis of nisin. NisK possesses two trans-membrane segments and a large extracellular region and nisin contains 34 amino acids with five lanthionine rings. Unlike most peptide sensing HK with multi trans-membrane segments, NisK is a representative of a group of rarely reported HK that sense peptide as l...
Resistance of microorganisms to antibiotics has increased. The use of natural components with antimicrobial properties can be of great significance to reduce this problem. The presented work is focused on the study of the effect of encapsulation of selected plant and animal antimicrobial substances (herbs, spices, lysozyme and nisin) on their activity and stability. Antimicrobial components wer...
OBJECTIVE We have sought ways to circumvent resistance, by combining nisin with other antibiotics known to target bacterial cell wall biosynthesis. METHODS Twenty strains each of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) were tested in vitro by standardized methods against nisin alone and combined with bacitracin, ramoplanin and chlorampheni...
Previous investigations have revealed that Bacillus coagulans strain 43P is sensitive to the polypeptide antibiotic nisin (O'Brien et al., 1956; Campbell and Sniff, 1959; Campbell, Sniff, and O'Brien, 1959). It has also been found that nisin is effective in the control of the flat sour spoilage of tomato juice in inoculated pack studies with this strain of B. coagulans (Campbell et al., 1959). ...
The post-translationally modified peptide antibiotic nisin has been cleaved by a number of proteases and the fragments produced purified, characterised chemically, and assayed for activity in inhibiting the growth of Lactococcus lactis MG1614 and Micrococcus luteus NCDO8166. These results provide information on the importance of different parts of the nisin molecule for its growth-inhibition ac...
This paper examines the synergistic action of carbon dioxide and nisin on Listeria monocytogenes Scott A wild-type and nisin-resistant (Nis(r)) cells grown in broth at 4 degrees C. Carbon dioxide extended the lag phase and decreased the specific growth rate of both strains, but to a greater degree in the Nis(r) cells. Wild-type cells grown in 100% CO(2) were two to five times longer than cells ...
