Abstract
Salmonella enterica (S. enterica) is the most common food and waterborne pathogen worldwide. The growing trend of antibiotic-resistant S. enterica poses severe healthcare threats. As an alternative antimicrobial agent, bacteriophage-encoded endolysins (endolysins) are a potential agent in controlling S. enterica infection. Endolysins are enzymes that particularly target the peptidoglycan layer of bacterial cells, leading to their rupture and destruction. However, the application of endolysins against Gram-negative bacteria is limited due to the presence of the outer membrane in the cell wall, which hinders the permeation of externally applied endolysins. This study aimed the prokaryotic expression system to produce the recombinant endolysin ENDO-1252, encoded by the Salmonella bacteriophage-1252 associated with S. Enteritidis. Subsequently, ENDO-1252 had strong lytic activity not only against S. Enteritidis but also against S. Typhimurium. In addition, ENDO-1252 showed optimal thermostability and lytic activity at 25°C with a pH of 7.0. In combination with 0.1 mM EDTA, the effect of 120 µg of ENDO-1252 for 6 hours exhibited the highest lytic activity, resulting in a reduction of 1.15 log or 92.87% on S. Enteritidis. These findings suggest that ENDO-1252 can be used as a potential and innovative antibacterial agent for controlling the growth of S. Enteritidis.
期刊介绍：
FEMS Microbiology Letters gives priority to concise papers that merit rapid publication by virtue of their originality, general interest and contribution to new developments in microbiology. All aspects of microbiology, including virology, are covered.
2019 Impact Factor: 1.987, Journal Citation Reports (Source Clarivate, 2020)
Ranking: 98/135 (Microbiology)
The journal is divided into eight Sections:
Physiology and Biochemistry (including genetics, molecular biology and ‘omic’ studies)
Food Microbiology (from food production and biotechnology to spoilage and food borne pathogens)
Biotechnology and Synthetic Biology
Pathogens and Pathogenicity (including medical, veterinary, plant and insect pathogens – particularly those relating to food security – with the exception of viruses)
Environmental Microbiology (including ecophysiology, ecogenomics and meta-omic studies)
Virology (viruses infecting any organism, including Bacteria and Archaea)
Taxonomy and Systematics (for publication of novel taxa, taxonomic reclassifications and reviews of a taxonomic nature)
Professional Development (including education, training, CPD, research assessment frameworks, research and publication metrics, best-practice, careers and history of microbiology)
If you are unsure which Section is most appropriate for your manuscript, for example in the case of transdisciplinary studies, we recommend that you contact the Editor-In-Chief by email prior to submission. Our scope includes any type of microorganism - all members of the Bacteria and the Archaea and microbial members of the Eukarya (yeasts, filamentous fungi, microbial algae, protozoa, oomycetes, myxomycetes, etc.) as well as all viruses.
