Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Structures of novel bacteriocins from lactic acid bacteria, such as enterocin NKR-5-3 and enterocin F4-9, were analyzed and determined. Biosynthetic gene clusters of leaderless bacteriocins such as lacticin Q and lacticin Z, and circular bacteriocins such as leucocyclicin Q were analyzed, and the genes responsible for their secretion and self-immunity were identified. Antibacterial action of lacticin Q was found to involve pore formation on cell membrane of target cells as well as accumulation and scavenging ability of hydroxyl radicals in target cells.
