Genetically engineered microorganisms that overexpress microcin-mge and methods of purification and use

Abstract

This disclosure relates to genetically engineered microorganisms for overexpressing microcin compositions, e.g., MccH47 compositions and MccI47 compositions, which are post-translationally modified with a covalent linkage at the C-terminus to a siderophore, such as mono-glycosylated cyclic enterobactin (MGE), to form microcin-MGE compositions, e.g., MccH47-MGE and MccI47-MGE compositions, the purified compositions themselves, methods of making the purified compositions, and methods of using the purified compositions to treat or reduce the risk of bacterial infections or dysbiosis.
