The invention discloses III-type
bacteriocin Helveticin-M molecular from L. crispatus. The Helveticin-M molecular possesses
antibacterial effect, and is a polypeptide selected from polypeptide (a), polypeptide (b), or polypeptide (c). The polypeptide (a) is obtained via coding of
a DNA molecular with a
base sequence represented by SEQ ID NO:1; the polypeptide (b) is obtained via coding of
a DNA molecular with a
base sequence represented by SEQ ID NO:2; and the polypeptide (a) is a derivative of polypeptide (b), is obtained via substitution, deletion, or addition of one or a plurality of amino acids, and possesses
antibacterial activity. The invention also discloses
a DNA molecular used for coding Helveticin-M molecular. The invention also discloses a preparation method of III-type
bacteriocin Helveticin-M molecular, and applications of III-type
bacteriocin Helveticin-M molecular, the
DNA molecular, recombinant vectors, or host cells in
food preservation bacteria inhibition and
decomposition inhibition. The III-type bacteriocin Helveticin-M molecular possesses
antibacterial activity, and can be used in food fresh keeping;
heterologous expression can be realized; and the preparation method possesses guidance meaning in research and study on III-type bacteriocin.
