A 15-mer peptide fragment derived from pediocin PA-1 (from residue 20 to residue 34) specifically inhibited the bactericidal activity of pediocin PA-1. The fragment did not inhibit the pediocin-like bacteriocins sakacin P, leucocin A, and curvacin A to nearly the same extent as it inhibited pediocin PA-1. Enterocin A, however, was also significantly inhibited by this fragment, although not as greatly as pediocin PA-1. This is consistent with the fact that enterocin A contains the longest continuous sequence identical to that of pediocin PA-1 in the region spanned by the fragment. The fragment inhibited pediocin PA-1 to a much greater extent than did the other 29 possible 15-mer fragments that span pediocin PA-1. The results suggest that the fragment—by interacting with the target cells and/or pediocin PA-1—interferes specifically with pediocin-target cell interaction.
