Inhibition of Staphylococcus aureus growth on tellurite-containing media by Lactobacillus reuteir is dependent on CyuC and thiol production

Article Abstract:

A study result shows that Lactobacillus reuteri inhibits Staphylococcus aureus growth on Baird-Parker agar, which requires presence of tellurite not shared with Lactobacillus reuteri mutant defective in cystine metabolism. The study observations showed that secreted products generated from Lactobacillus reuteri cystine metabolism and thiols augment tellurite toxicity.

Peptide surface display and secretion using two LPXTG-containing surface proteins from Lactobacillus fermentum BR11

Article Abstract:

Research describes the identification and characterization of the genes encoding proteins Rlp and Mlp, similar to LPXTG surface proteins and adhesisns from bacteria. Functional elements of the two proteins from Lactobacillus fermentum BR11 can mediate secretion and cell surface anchoring of heterologous peptides.

Identification and characterization of the novel LysM domain-containing surface protein Sep from Lactobacillus fermentum BR11 and its use as a peptide fusion partner in lactobacilus and lactococcus

Article Abstract:

The model organism in this study is Lactobacillus fermentum BR11 and the main aim of this study is to develop heterologous protein expressing systems using lactobacilli surface proteins.
