Abstract excerpt
Cloning of a 16-kb DNA fragment from the 61-kb plasmid of Carnobacterium piscicola LV17B into plasmidless C. piscicola LV17C restores the production of the plasmid-encoded carnobacteriocin B2 and the chromosomally-encoded carnobacteriocin BM1 and restores the immune phenotype. This fragment also has sufficient genetic information to allow the expression of carnobacteriocin B2 and its immunity in a heterologous...
