Abstract: Strains of many bacterial species produce proteinaceous antimicrobial substances called bacteriocins. They are generally effective only against the same or closely related
species. The goal of this review is to describe what is known about bacteriocins of
Pseudomonas genus. Pseudomonas aeruginosa can produce three types of bacteriocins: R-, F- and S-type pyocins. R- and F-type pyocins resemble tails of bacteriophages. They are protease- and nuclease-resistant. The comparison of pyocins and bacteriophages genes let to conclude that R-type pyocin is related to P2 phage, and F-type pyocin derive from A phage. S-type pyocins are soluble, colicin-like, protease-sensitive proteins. They are constituted of two components. The large component carries the killing activity and the small component is immunity protein. Pyocin genes are located on the chromosome of
P. aeruginosa. The production of pyocin is inducible by DNA-damaging agents e.g. ultraviolet irradiation. Many bacteriocins of
Pseudomonas sp. isolated from the environment were purified and characterized. They have variety physical and chemical properties and spectrum of activity. It's consider to use some pyocins of P. aeruginosa as alternative to clasical antibiotics almost against multidrug-resistance strains. Some bacteriocins of
Pseudomonas sp. may be used as biological control agents in plant
diseases.
