Abstract excerpt
The production of lacticin RM, a novel bacteriocin produced by Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis EZ26, is associated with the presence of a 6-kb plasmid, pHU1. The information necessary for lacticin RM production and immunity was localized to a 2.5-kb SalI-Eco47III fragment. Sequencing analysis of this fragment revealed the presence of six open reading frames (ORFs). Deletion and mutation analyses showed that orfX...
