Description
Dysgalacticin (Synonym: streptococcin G-2580) is the second plasmid-encoded Sec-dependent bacteriocin. Dysgalacticin is a heat-labile 21.5 kDa anionic protein that kills its target without inducing lysis.

MODE OF ACTION:
Dysgalacticin appears to bind to the glucose and mannose trans-porters of the PTS (ref 3). Dysgalacticin was shown to block the up-take of glucose and the nonmetabolizable analog 2-deoxyglucose;it also perturbs the membrane of the cell, causing the dissipation of membrane potential (ref 3).
