Over 2000-Fold Increased Production of the Leaderless Bacteriocin Garvicin KS by Increasing Gene Dose and Optimization of Culture Conditions
Telke, Amar; Ovchinnikov, Kirill; Vuoristo, Kiira; Mathiesen, Geir; Thorstensen, Tage; Diep, Dzung B. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The leaderless bacteriocin Garvicin KS (GarKS) is a potent antimicrobial, being active against a wide range of important pathogens. GarKS production by the native producer Lactococcus garvieae KS1546 is, however, relatively ... -
Production and surface anchoring of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and SARS-CoV-2 antigens in Lactobacillus plantarum
Trondsen, Lene (Master thesis, 2021)Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are considered good candidates for delivery of antigens because they are regarded as safe to consume by humans and can survive the rough conditions in the gastrointestinal tract, to mention some ... -
Production of potential immune modulating proteins from Methylococcus capsulatus Bath and characterization of their putative roles in inflammation
Aaen, Kristin Hovden (Master thesis, 2019)Commensal microbes have for a long time been considered important for the function and development of the human immune system. Later studies also highlight the beneficial potential of non-commensals to human health. The ... -
