Methods] On the basis of M21K nisinZ, a former reported nisinZ mutant that exhibited antimicrobial activity against Gram-negative bacteria, the 29th amino acid of it was mutated from serine to lysine. The mutant M21K/S29K nisZ gene was cloned into vector pMG36e and the recombinant plasmid was introduced into Lacotococcus lactis NZ9800. The resulting M21K/S29K nisinZ was then isolated and purified, and its antibacterial activity, antibacterial spectrum and stability were analyzed and compared to those of M21K nisinZ and nisinZ. Results] Compared with wild-type nisinZ and M21K nisinZ, the M21K/S29K nisinZ displayed reduced antimicrobial activity, but showed significantly increased stabilities to heat and pH stress. Moreover, M21K/S29K nisinZ also exhibited antimicrobial activity against Gram-negative bacteria as M21K nisinZ did. Conclusion] By changing the 29th amino acid of nisin, we can optimize the property of nisin, especially its stability to heat and pH stress. %K 关键词:乳链菌肽 %K 稳定性 %K 温度 %K pH %K 定点突变 %U http://www.alljournals.cn/get_abstract_url.aspx?pcid=90BA3D13E7F3BC869AC96FB3DA594E3FE34FBF7B8BC0E591&jid=A3C6BA55AB623B90FA9104CFFC826F3C&aid=7D8F631775E873F33A523C14972A0371&yid=140ECF96957D60B2&vid=771152D1ADC1C0EB&iid=708DD6B15D2464E8&sid=AB07CD602348A2CC&eid=BFA4330C9764AE1A&journal_id=0001-6209&journal_name=微生物学报&referenced_num=0&reference_num=0
