Bacteriocin-like Material Produced by Pasteurella pestis Ben-Gurion, Renana and Hertman, I.,, 19, 289-297 (1958), doi = https://doi.org/10.1099/00221287-19-2-289, publicationName = Microbiology Society, issn = 1350-0872, abstract= SUMMARY: Strains of Pasteurella pestis under certain conditions form bacteriocin-like material, for which the name ‘pesticin’ is proposed; it inhibits the growth of P. pseudotuberculosis. The conditions necessary for induction of pesticin formation are similar to those which lead to induction of formation of some known bacteriocins. Of 24 strains of P. pestis tested, all but one produced pesticin. A mutant of P. pseudotuberculosis which was resistant to pesticin produced by one strain of P. pestis was found to be resistant to pesticin produced by all the other strains., language=, type=
