'''Polylysine''' refers to several types of ] ]s, which may differ from each other in terms of stereochemistry (D/L; the L form is natural and usually assumed) and link position (α/ε). Of these types, only ε-poly-L-lysine is produced naturally. |

The precursor amino acid lysine contains two ]s, one at the ] and one at the ε-carbon. Either can be the location of ], resulting in α-polylysine or ε-polylysine. Polylysine is a homopolypeptide belonging to the group of ] ]s: at ] 7, polylysine contains a positively charged ] amino group. |

α-Polylysine is a synthetic polymer, which can be composed of either <small>L</small>-lysine or <small>D</small>-lysine. "L" and "D" refer to the ] at lysine's central carbon. This results in poly-<small>L</small>-lysine (PLL) and poly-<small>D</small>-lysine (PDL) respectively.<ref>Sitterley, G. (2008). Poly-l-lysine cell attachment protocol. BioFiles, 3(8), 12.</ref> |

==Production== |
|
|
Production of polylysine by natural fermentation is only observed in strains of bacteria in the genus '']''. '']'' is most often used in scientific studies and is also used for the commercial production of ε-polylysine. |

The production of ε-polylysine by natural fermentation was first described by researchers Shoji Shima and Heiichi Sakai in 1977.<ref name="Shima"/> Since the late 1980s, ε-polylysine has been approved by the Japanese ] as a preservative in food. In January 2004, ε-polylysine became ] (GRAS) certified in the United States.<ref name="FDA"> {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080511163336/http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~rdb/opa-g135.html |date=2008-05-11 }}</ref> |

===In food=== |

ε-Polylysine is used commercially as a food ] in Japan, Korea and in imported items sold in the United States. Food products containing polylysine are mainly found in Japan. The use of polylysine is common in food applications such as boiled rice, cooked vegetables, soups, ] and sliced fish (]).<ref name="Hiraki">{{cite journal | doi = 10.1016/S0273-2300(03)00029-1 | author = Hiraki, J.| year = 2003 | title = Use of ADME studies to confirm the safety of ε-polylysine as a preservative in food | journal = ] | volume = 37 | pages = 328–340 | pmid = 12726761 | issue = 2|display-authors=etal}}</ref> |

Polylysine has a light yellow appearance and is slightly bitter in taste whether in powder or liquid form. |

== α-Polylysine== |
|
|
===In tissue culture=== |
|
|
α-Polylysine is commonly used to coat tissue cultureware as an attachment factor which improves cell adherence. This phenomenon is based on the interaction between the positively charged polymer and negatively charged cells or proteins. While the poly-<small>L</small>-lysine (PLL) precursor amino acid occurs naturally, the poly-<small>D</small>-lysine (PDL) precursor is an artificial product. The latter is therefore thought to be resistant to enzymatic degradation and so may prolong cell adherence.<ref>{{cite journal | doi = 10.1083/jcb.66.1.198 | author = Mazia, D.| year = 1975 | title = Adhesion of cells to surfaces coated with polylysine.

==Chemical modification== |
|
|
In 2010, hydrophobically modified ε-polylysine was synthesized by reacting EPL with octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA).<ref>Yu, et al, J. Agri Food Chem, 2010 Jan 27;58(2):1290-5.</ref> It was found that OSA-g-EPLs had glass transition temperatures lower than EPL. They were able to form polymer ] in water and to lower the surface tension of water, confirming their amphiphilic properties. The antimicrobial activities of OSA-g-EPLs were also examined, and the minimum inhibitory concentrations of OSA-g-EPLs against ''Escherichia coli'' O157:H7 remained the same as that of EPL. Therefore, modified EPLs have the potential of becoming bifunctional molecules, which can be used either as surfactants or emulsifiers in the encapsulation of water-insoluble drugs or as antimicrobial agents. |
