Abstract:

The purpose is to separate and purify the stimulating factors in Bacillus subtilis that can induce the secretion of bacteriocin Paracin1.7, and to explore its influence on the production of Lactobacillus paracasei HD1.7 bacteriocin and the expression of quorum sensing related gene luxS. After 60% ammonium sulfate precipitation, moderate purification by CM Sepharose Fast Flow weak cation-exchange chromatography and accurate purification by Superdex 75 gel filtration, the chromatography isolates were obtained, and they were co-cultured with Lactobacillus paracasei HD1.7. The antimicrobial activity of the co-culture fermentation broth and the transcription level of luxS gene were detected. The SDS-PAGE and Native-PAGE were used to detect the isolated substances. The results showed that the antimicrobial activity of Lactobacillus paracasei HD1.7 was 126.68%. The expression of luxS gene was up-regulated, which was 2.43 folds of that of the original strain. The apparent relative molecular weight of the stimulating factor was about 30 kDa. In this study, the stimulating factor that induces the production of Paracin 1.7 was preliminarily separated and purified by the three-step method, and it was confirmed that the stimulating factor could activate the interspecies quorum sensing related gene luxS. The study could lay a theoretical and technical foundation for further exploration of the quorum sensing of Lactobacillus paracasei HD1.7.
