The lactococcal abortive infection mechanisms AbiA and AbiG were introduced into Streptococcus thermophilus 4035, and a range of phages capable of infecting this host were examined for sensitivity to these mechanisms. AbiA proved effective against six phages when examined at a growth temperature of 30 degrees C but had no effect on any of the phages when tested at 37 or 42 degrees C. AbiG failed to affect any of the S. thermophilus phages at 30, 37, or 42 degrees C.
将乳球菌流产感染机制AbiA和AbiG导入嗜热链球菌4035,并检测了一系列能够感染该宿主的噬菌体对这些机制的敏感性。在30摄氏度的生长温度下检测时,AbiA对六种噬菌体有效,但在37或42摄氏度测试时,对任何噬菌体都没有影响。在30、37或42摄氏度时,AbiG对任何嗜热链球菌噬菌体均无影响。
