Multi-Target Antibacterial Mechanism of Moringin From Moringa oleifera Seeds Against Listeria monocytogenes.

ABSTRACT: Moringin [4-(α-L-rhamnosyloxy) benzyl isothiocyanate] is an isothiocyanate from Moringa oleifera seeds. It is the bioactivated form of the glucosinolate precursor glucomoringin with various health benefits. However, few studies have examined the antibacterial activity of moringin. This study aimed to investigate the antimicrobial activity and mechanism of moringin against Listeria monocytogenes. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), and growth curves were used to evaluate the bacteriostatic effect of moringin against L. monocytogenes. Transcriptome analysis by RNA sequencing was performed to elucidate the underlying mechanism of moringin against L. monocytogenes. The transcriptome results were validated. The results showed that moringin inhibited the growt
