AN ANTIMICROBIAL PEPTIDE SPECIFICALLY ACTIVE AGAINST LISTERIA MONOCYTOGENES IS SECRETED BY BACILLUS PUMILUS SF214

An antimicrobial peptide specifically active against Listeria monocytogenes is secreted by Bacillus pumilus SF214

Abstract Background Members of the Bacillus genus produce a large variety of antimicrobial peptides including linear or cyclic lipopeptides and thiopeptides, that often have a broad spectrum of action against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.We have recently reported that SF214, a marine isolated strain of Bacillus pumilus, produces two dif
