Genome of Pediococcus acidilactici ITV26 isolated from neonatal feces: enzymatic potential for food industrial applications
ITV26, isolated from neonatal feces, comprises 1,961,346 bp and is 99.8% complete. Annotation identified 1,930 genes, including specific peptidoglycan hydrolase with antimicrobial activity, probiotic-associated proteins mediating intestinal adhesion and acid tolerance, and enzymes predicted to drive flavor development in fermented foods, confirming its multifunctional biotechnological potential.
