ABSTRACT
Aim:
The objective of this study was to identify the genes involved in plantaricin synthesis and adaptive stress response in four Lactobacillus plantarum strains (AS-6, AS-8, AS-9 and AS-10) and one Lactobacillus paraplantarum strain (AS-7) for their usage in medicine and industry. Materials &methods:
Whole genomes of these strains were sequenced by a high-throughput sequencing technique known as next-generation sequencing via Ilumina MiSeq platform and the genes were identified by using various bioinformatics tools and software.Results:
Plantaricin genes (plnD, plnE, plnF, plnG, plnI) and genes regulating response to temperature, pH, bile salt, osmotic and oxidative stress were identified in all strains.Conclusion:
Lactobacilli could be an option to combat antimicrobial resistance and might replace harmful antibiotics in future.Key words
