Pediococcus pentosaceus Pep1 is a vacuum-packaged Turkish sausage isolate which produces a potentially novel bacteriocin of the pediocin (anti-Listeria) family of peptides designated as pediocin P. Curing experiments and plasmid profile analysis indicated that both bacteriocin immunity and production determinants were linked and encoded by 9.0 MDa plasmid, pHD1.0. Attempts to transform purified plasmid pHD1.0 into recipient Escherichia coli JM109 cells by electroporation were successful but none of the E. coli JM109 cells were able to express and/or release pediocin P. However. P. pentosaceus PC, a plasmid-cured variant of P. pentosaceus Pep1 was successfully transformed with pHD1.0 by electroporation and Bac(-)Bac(s) P. pentosaceus PC cells restarted to express and/or released pediocin P again as indicted by the presence of zone of growth inhibition of L. plantarum NCDO 955 around colonies.

Targeted disruption of homoserine dehydrogenase gene in Streptomyces clavuligerus and its effects on cephamycin C production
Çaydaşı (Koca), Ayşe; Özcengiz, Gülay; Department of Biology (2006)
The members of the genus Streptomyces are well-known for their capacity to synthesize a vast repertoire of secondary metabolites, including many useful antibiotics and proteins. Streptomyces clavuligerus is the producer of the medically important β-lactam antibiotics such as cephamycin C and the potent β-lactamase inhibitor clavulanic acid. The aspartate pathway of S. clavuligerus is an important primary metabolic pathway providing substrates for β-lactam synthesis. This pathway uses L-aspartic acid as the ...
Analysis of a bac operon-silenced strain suggests pleiotropic effects of bacilysin in Bacillus subtilis
Ertekin, Ozan; Taskin, Ash Aras; Demir, Mustafa; Karataş, Ayten; Özcengiz, Gülay (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-04-01)
Bacilysin, as the simplest peptide antibiotic made up of only L-alanine and L-anticapsin, is produced and excreted by Bacillus subtilis under the control of quorum sensing. We analyzed bacilysin-nonproducing strain OGU1 which was obtained by bacA-targeted pMutin T3 insertion into the parental strain genome resulting in a genomic organization (bacA '::lacZ::erm::bacABCDEF) to form an IPTG-inducible bac operon. Although IPTG induction provided 3- to 5-fold increment in the transcription of bac operon genes, n...
Investigation of cytocidal effect of K5 type yeast killer protein on sensitive microbial cells
Sertkaya, Abdullah; İzgü, Kadri Fatih; Department of Biology (2005)
Some yeasts secrete polypeptide toxins, which are lethal to other sensitive yeast cells, gram-positive pathogenic bacteria and pathogenic fungi. Therefore these are designated as killer toxins. Killer toxins are suggested as potent antimicrobial agents especially for the protection of fermentation process against contaminating yeasts, biological control of undesirable yeasts in the preservation of foods. Moreover they are promising antimicrobial agents in the medical field; due to immune system suppressing ...
Proteome-wide analysis of the functional roles of Bacilysin biosynthesis in Bacillus subtilis
Taşkın Aras, Aslı; Özcengiz, Gülay; Department of Biology (2010)
The members of the genus Bacillus produce a wide variety of secondary metabolites with antimetabolic and pharmacological activities. Most of these metabolites are small peptides that have unusual components and chemical bonds and synthesized nonribosomally by multifunctional enzyme complexes called peptide synthetases. Bacilysin, being produced and excreted by certain strains of Bacillus subtilis, is one of the simplest peptide antibiotics known. It is a dipeptide with an N-terminal L-alanine and an unusual...
High hydrostatic pressure induced inactivation kinetics of e. coli o157:h7 and s. aureus in carrot juice and analysis of cell volume change
Pilavtepe, Mutlu; Alpas, Hami; Department of Food Engineering (2007)
The main objective of this study was to determine the pressure induced inactivation mechanism of pressure-resistant Escherichia coli O157:H7 933 and Staphylococcus aureus 485 in a low acid food. Firstly, inactivation curves of pathogens were obtained at 200 to 400 MPa at 40ºC in peptone water and carrot juice. First-order and Weibull models were fitted and Weibull model described the inactivation curves of both pathogens more accurately than first-order model, revealing that food systems could exhibit eithe...
