Inducible promoter-repressor system from the Lactobacillus casei phage phiFSW.
With the aim to extend the presently available inducible gene expression systems for lactobacilli, we have isolated a thermoinducible promoter-repressor cassette from the temperate Lactobacillus casei phage phiFSW-TI in Escherichia coli. The phiFSW-TI promoter fragment was abutted to the plasmid-borne promoterless beta-glucuronidase (gusA) reporter gene and shown to direct its transcription in ...
متن کاملEvaluation of novel inducible promoter/repressor systems for recombinant protein expression in Lactobacillus plantarum.
BACKGROUND Engineering lactic acid bacteria (LAB) is of growing importance for food and feed industry as well as for in vivo vaccination or the production of recombinant proteins in food grade organisms. Often, expression of a transgene is only desired at a certain time point or period, e.g. to minimize the metabolic burden for the host cell or to control the expression time span. For this purp...
متن کاملProteolysis by Lactobacillus casei
A study of the proteinase activity of Lactobacillus casei grown in milk and of cell-free extract of L. cawi has been reported on in a previous paper (Brandsaeter and Nelson, 1956). Whereas the proteinases of L. casei have been studied to some extent earlier, very little has been done to characterize the peptidases of this organism. Other lactobacilli hydrolyze some peptides (Christophersen and ...
متن کاملLactobacillus casei dihydrofolate reductase
1 The binding of a series of amide derivatives of methotrexate to Lactobacillus casei dihydrofolate reductase has been studied by inhibition constant measurements and by 'H n.m.r. spectroscopy. 2 Amide modification of the a-carboxylate of methotrexate was found to prevent interaction of the y-carboxylate with the imidazole of His 28. 3 Estimates of the contributions to the binding energy from t...
متن کاملCell surface characteristics of Lactobacillus casei subsp. casei, Lactobacillus paracasei subsp. paracasei, and Lactobacillus rhamnosus strains.
Hydrophilic and electrostatic cell surface properties of eight Lactobacillus strains were characterized by using the microbial adhesion to solvents method and microelectrophoresis, respectively. All strains appeared relatively hydrophilic. The strong microbial adhesion to chloroform, an acidic solvent, in comparison with microbial adhesion to hexadecane, an apolar n-alkane, demonstrated the par...
