Lactobacillus plantarum WUH3 was a lactic acid bacterium isolated from Chinese traditional pickled cucumber, which has good antibacterial activity. In this paper, the properties and application value of L. plantarum WUH3 were studied by gene analysis and experimental verification. Firstly, the whole genome of L. plantarum WUH3 was sequenced and analyzed to predict its properties. Results showed that this strain contained many transporter genes related to bacteriocin synthesis, and three bacteriocins synthesis genes: Plantarin_EF, Pediocin and Enterocin_X_chain_beta, indicating that the strain had the ability to synthesize and secrete bacteriocin. A series of experiments were designed to show that this strain could secrete bacteriocin with the molecular weight between 4.1-6.5 kDa. Its bacteriocin had good thermal stability (121 ℃, 30 min) and pH stability (pH 2-11). Further research showed that this bacteriocin could inhibit a variety of spoilage bacteria and pathogens, which proved it has a broad-spectrum antibacterial activity. Especially, the bacteriocin exerted its antibacterial effect by acting on the surface of cell membrane and causing membranolysis. Finally, we analyzed the safety of L. plantarum WUH3, and found that it was harmless to human body. Thus, it can be used for food preservation. This study is useful for the development and application of L. plantarum WUH3.
