Thermal-stability-based recovery of biologically active pediocin from a recombinant protein fused to green fluorescent protein.

Pediocin, produced by certain lactic acid bacteria, has high antibacterial activity against Listeria monocytogenes and is therefore expected to be used as a peptide food preservative. In this study, a rapid and efficient method for recovering pediocin with antibacterial activity from a fusion protein with green fluores...
