“…Among the five strains, SRCM103571 and SRCM103689 possessed a number of unique genes including cscB, lacF_2, lacG, maa_1, nisB, nisC_2, sacA, and spaS, which are involved in disaccharide permeases, sucrose-5-phosphate hydrolase, nisin biosynthesis, and lantibiotic subtilin synthesis. Disaccharide metabolism-associated proteins including fructooligosaccharide and galactooligosaccharide permeases have been reported to be essential for colonization, have effects on cell membrane fluidity, and be required for prebiotic utilization, providing the bacterial strains to attach and colonize the host intestine [64][65][66]. Additionally, peptides such as nisin and subtilin, encoded by nisB, nisC, and spaS, are bacteriocin effective against many Gram-positive organisms, functioning as probable probiotics with antimicrobial activities [67][68][69].…”
