    Abstract: Propionicin T1 has been isolated from Propionibacterium thoenii and both the genetic operon and the products encoded thereby have been characterized. The operon contains two genes: one that encodes propionicin T1 and an one that encodes ABC transporter which may be an immunity factor which increases resistance of Propionibacterium thoenii bacteria to propionicin T1. Processes for using and making these products are also provided.
