Mexican Tuba (M-Tuba) and Tepache are Mexican fermented beverages prepared mainly with pineapple pulp and coconut palm, respectively. At present, reports on the microbiota and nutritional effects of both beverages are lacking. The purpose of this study was to...

Peptide Extracts from Cultures of Certain Lactobacilli Inhibit Helicobacter pylori.

Probiotics and antimicrobial proteins

De Vuyst L, Vincent P, Makras E, Leroy F, Pot B.
PMID: 26780898
Probiotics Antimicrob Proteins. 2010 Mar;2(1):26-36. doi: 10.1007/s12602-009-9029-4.

Helicobacter pylori inhibition by probiotic lactobacilli has been observed in vitro and in vivo. Carefully selected probiotic Lactobacillus strains could therefore play an important role in the treatment of H. pylori infection and eradication. However, the underlying mechanism for...

Heterologous Processing and Export of the Bacteriocins Pediocin PA-1 and Lactococcin A in Lactococcus Lactis: A Study with Leader Exchange.

Probiotics and antimicrobial proteins

Probiotics Antimicrob Proteins. 2010 Jun;2(2):66-76. doi: 10.1007/s12602-009-9023-x.

The bacteriocins pediocin PA-1 and lactococcin A are synthesized as precursors carrying N-terminal extensions with a conserved cleavage site preceded by two glycine residues in positions -2 and -1. Each bacteriocin is translocated through the cytoplasmic membrane by an...

Stability and Inhibitory Activity of Pediocin PA-1 Against Listeria sp. in Simulated Physiological Conditions of the Human Terminal Ileum.

Probiotics and antimicrobial proteins

Listeria monocytogenes is responsible for severe foodborne infections, which can be life-threatening especially for infants and elderly populations. The emergence of antibiotic-resistant pathogens has stimulated the search for new strategies, such as the use of bacteriocins, to prevent or...

Cell Wall-active Bacteriocins and Their Applications Beyond Antibiotic Activity.

Probiotics and antimicrobial proteins

Roces C, Rodríguez A, Martínez B.
PMID: 26782186
Probiotics Antimicrob Proteins. 2012 Dec;4(4):259-72. doi: 10.1007/s12602-012-9116-9.

Microorganisms synthesize several compounds with antimicrobial activity in order to compete or defend themselves against others and ensure their survival. In this line, the cell wall is a major protective barrier whose integrity is essential for many vital bacterial...
