A putative amino acid transporter determines sensitivity to the two‐peptide bacteriocin plantaricin JK

Lactobacillus plantarum produces a number of antimicrobial peptides (bacteriocins) that mostly target closely related bacteria. Although bacteriocins are important for the ecology of these bacteria, very little is known about how the peptides target sensitive cells. In this work, a putative membran...
