Bacteriocins are antimicrobial peptides produced by bacteria. Some of those synthesized by Lactococcus lactis have been characterized in great detail recently. The lactococcal bacteriocins are hydrophobic cationic peptides, which form pores in the cytoplasmic membrane of sensitive cells.
细菌素是由细菌产生的抗菌肽。最近,乳酸乳球菌合成的其中一些细菌素已得到详细表征。乳酸乳球菌细菌素是疏水性阳离子肽,可在敏感细胞的细胞质膜上形成孔道。
