    NisI confers immunity against nisin, with high substrate specificity to prevent a suicidal effect in nisin-producing Lactococcus lactis strains. However, the NisI maturation process as well as its influence on nisin resistance has not been characterized. Here, we report the roles of lipoprotein signal peptidase II (Lsp) and prolipoprotein diacylglyceryl transferase (Lgt) in NisI maturation and nisin resistance of L. lactis F44. We found that the resistance of nisin of an Lsp-deficient mutant remarkably decreased, while no significant differences in growth were observed. We demonstrated that Lsp could cleave signal peptide of NisI precursor in vitro. Moreover, diacylglyceryl modification of NisI catalyzed by Lgt played a decisive role in attachment of NisI on the cell envelope, while it exhibited no effects on cleavage of the signal peptides of NisI precursor. The dissociation constant (KD) for the interaction between nisin and NisI exhibited a 2.8-fold increase compared with that between nisin and pre-NisI with signal peptide by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) analysis, providing evidence that Lsp-catalyzed signal peptide cleavage was critical for the immune activity of NisI. Our study revealed the process of NisI maturation in L. lactis and presented a potential strategy to enhance industrial nisin production.

    This work aimed to study the potential of defatted rice bran (DRB) and defatted soybean meal (DSM) as carbon and nitrogen sources for Lactococcus lactis growth and nisin production. First, a maximum nisin yield of 3630 IU/mL was achieved using 40% DRB hydrolysates and 30% DSM hydrolysates, which was 1.13 times greater than that found in commercial media. Second, to simplify the operation and shorten the length of the entire process, the processes of combined hydrolysis of DRB-DSM followed by fermentation, and simultaneous hydrolysis and fermentation of DRB-DSM were developed. Neutral proteinase enhanced the saccharification of DRB by cellulase and α-amylase. Furthermore, the strategy of NADH oxidase expression and hemin addition was innovatively proposed to overcome the oxygen stress in a simultaneous hydrolysis and fermentation process, which could alleviate the lag period following inoculation of L. lactis and result in a 77.3% increase in nisin titer.
