Published in 2019 at "MicrobiologyOpen"

DOI: 10.1002/mbo3.957

Abstract: The two‐peptide bacteriocins produced by Gram‐positive bacteria require two different peptides, present in equimolar amounts, to elicit optimal antimicrobial activity. Producer organisms are protected from their bacteriocin by a dedicated immunity protein. The immunity proteins… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology"

DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2020.00644

Abstract: Enterocin DD14 (EntDD14) is a two-peptide leaderless bacteriocin produced by Enterococcus faecalis 14, a strain previously isolated from meconium. EntDD14 has a strong antibacterial activity against Gram-positive bacteria. Leaderless bacteriocins, unlike bacteriocins with leader peptides,… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "International Journal of Molecular Sciences"

DOI: 10.3390/ijms24021517

Abstract: Enterocin DD14 (EntDD14) is a two-peptide leaderless bacteriocin produced by the Enterococcus faecalis 14 strain previously isolated from meconium. This bacteriocin is mainly active against Gram-positive bacteria. Leaderless bacteriocins do not undergo post-translational modifications and… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Nutrients"

DOI: 10.3390/nu14194069

Abstract: In the present study, we prepared pea peptides with high angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activity in vitro using an enzymatic hydrolysis of pea protein and compounded them with clam peptides to obtain a pea-clam double… read more here.
