Abstract
ABSTRACT
Streptococcus uberis
, a causal agent of bovine mastitis, produces ubericin A, a 5.3-kDa class IIa (pediocin-like) bacteriocin, which was purified and characterized. The
uba
locus comprises two overlapping genes:
ubaA
(ubericin A precursor peptide) and
ubaI
(putative immunity protein). Ubericin A is the first streptococcal class IIa bacteriocin to be characterized.
