Functional Characterization of Pediocin PA-1 Binding to Liposomes in the Absence of a Protein Receptor and Its Relationship to a Predicted Tertiary Structure† (1996)

Yuhuan Chen, Roni Shapira, Miriam Eisenstein, Thomas J. Montville

The physicochemical interaction of pediocin PA-1 with target membranes was characterized using lipid vesicles made from the total lipids extracted from Listeria monocytogenes. Pediocin PA-1 caused...

Carbon Dioxide and Nisin Act Synergistically on Listeria monocytogenes

Nilsson, Lilian, Chen, Yuhuan, Chikindas, Michael L., Huss, Hans Henrik, Gram, Lone, Montville, Thomas J.

This paper examines the synergistic action of carbon dioxide and nisin on Listeria monocytogenes Scott A wild-type and nisin-resistant (Nisr) cells grown in broth at 4°C. Carbon dioxide extended the...

Comparison of Logistic Regression and Linear Regression in Modeling Percentage Data

Zhao, Lihui, Chen, Yuhuan, Schaffner, Donald W.

Percentage is widely used to describe different results in food microbiology, e.g., probability of microbial growth, percent inactivated, and percent of positive samples. Four sets of percentage...

Influence of Lipid Composition on Pediocin PA-1 Binding to Phospholipid Vesicles†

Chen, Yuhuan, Ludescher, Richard D., Montville, Thomas J.

Pediocin PA-1 bound to anionic lipid vesicles with saturated or unsaturated fatty acid chains in a lipid concentration-dependent fashion. Little change in binding parameters was observed for...

Listeria monocytogenes Isolates from Foods and Humans Form Distinct but Overlapping Populations

Gray, Michael J., Zadoks, Ruth N., Fortes, Esther D., Dogan, Belgin, Cai, Steven, Chen, Yuhuan, ...

A total of 502 Listeria monocytogenes isolates from food and 492 from humans were subtyped by EcoRI ribotyping and PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis of the virulence gene hly....

Relatedness of Listeria monocytogenes Isolates Recovered from Selected Ready-To-Eat Foods and Listeriosis Patients in the United States

Gilbreth, Stefanie Evans, Call, Jeff E., Wallace, F. Morgan, Scott, Virginia N., Chen, Yuhuan, Luchansky, John B.

Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis and serotyping were performed for 544 isolates of Listeria monocytogenes, including 502 isolates recovered from contaminated samples from 31,705 retail ready-to-eat...
