Bacteriocin Production

Bacteriocin Production is a microbial metabolic process in which specific strains of bacteria synthesize ribosomally produced antimicrobial peptides or proteins that inhibit or kill closely related bacterial species, distinguishing it from broader antimicrobial synthesis by its narrow spectrum of activity, genetic origin, and role in microbial competition within fermented food ecosystems.
