<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a new bacteriocin derived from Lactobacillus, being an antibacterial substance readily decomposed in the body, having a high inhibitory selectivity to microorganisms and providing high safety, a bacterial strain producing the same, a gene thereof, a relating gene thereof and use of the bacteriocin and the bacterial strain to foods. <P>SOLUTION: A new Lactobacillus, Enterococcus mundtii 7393 strain is separated using an antibacterial activity to Enterococcus faecium as an index and a new bacteriocin, mundticin KS is separated from the bacterial strain. The gene of the new bacteriocin, the resistance gene thereof and the extracellular exporter gene thereof are cloned from the genome gene of the bacterial strain. The new bacteriocin, the mundticin KS and the Enterococcus mundtii 7393 strain are used for production of conservable foods. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO |
