FliA regulates the antibacterial activity of plantaricin BM-1 against Escherichia coli K-12 through the LuxS/AI-2 quorum-sensing-mediated biofilm formation

IntroductionPlantaricin BM-1 is a class IIa bacteriocin active against Escherichia coli. However, the mode of action of class IIa bacteriocins against gram-negative bacteria remains unclear. In this study, the regulatory role of sigma factor FliA (σ28) in the antibacterial mechanism of plantaricin B...
