Production of pediocin PA-1, and coproduction of nisin a and pediocin PA-1, by wild Lactococcus lactis strains of dairy origin
Heterologous production of pediocin PA-1 in nisin and non-nisin-producing Lactococcus lactis strains, which had been previously selected because of their technological properties for cheese making, was investigated. Plasmid pFI2160, which contains a hybrid gene (L-pedA) encoding the fusion between the lactococcin A leader and propediocin PA-1, and also the genes lcnC and lcnD, that encode the lactococcin A secretion apparatus, was introduced into L. lactis ESI 153 and L. lactis ESI 515 (Nis+). The pediocin production level of their respective transformants, L. lactis CL1 and L. lactis CL2 (Nis +), was approximately 600 and 400ngmL-1, respectively, which represents a 30% and a 20% of the quantity produced by the natural pediocin PA-1 producer Pediococcus acidilactici 347. Transformation of L. lactis ESI 515 with pFI2160 did not affect its ability to produce nisin. Pediocin bioassays showed the stability of pFI2160 in both heterologous hosts under selective and non-selective conditions. © 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
