Lactococcin B Is Inactivated by Intrinsic Proteinase PrtP Digestion in Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis BGMN1-501

In our previous study we demonstrated that proteinase PrtP is able to impair bacteriocin LcnB activity, despite being produced by the same organism and encoded by the same plasmid. However, precise mechanism of this action, i.e., the exact cleavage site within LcnB bacteriocin, as well as its effect...
