Complete sequences of epidermin and nukacin encoding plasmids from oral-derived <i>Staphylococcus epidermidis</i> and their antibacterial activity
2021-09-24
Abstract excerpt
Staphylococcus epidermidis is a commensal bacterium in humans. To persist in the bacterial flora of the host, some bacteria produce antibacterial factors such as the antimicrobial peptides known as bacteriocins. In this study, we tried to isolate bacteriocin-producing S. epidermidis strains. Among 150 S. epidermidis isolates from the oral cavities of 287 volunteers, we detected two bacteriocin-producing strains,...
