Regulation and adaptive evolution of lactose operon expression in Lactobacillus delbrueckii.
Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus and L. delbrueckii subsp. lactis are both used in the dairy industry as homofermentative lactic acid bacteria in the production of fermented milk products. After selective pressure for the fast fermentation of milk in the manufacture of yogurts, L. delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus loses its ability to regulate lac operon expression. A series of mutations...
متن کاملAn operon encoding three glycolytic enzymes in Lactobacillus delbrueckii
The structural genes gap, pgk and fpi encoding three glycolytic enzymes, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), 3-phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) and triosephosphate isomerase (TPI), respectively, have been cloned and sequenced from Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus (L. bulgaricus). The genes were isolated after screening genomic sublibraries with specific gap and pgk probes ...
متن کاملTranscriptional regulation and evolution of lactose genes in the galactose-lactose operon of Lactococcus lactis NCDO2054.
The genetics of lactose utilization within the slow-lactose-fermenting Lactococcus lactis strain NCDO2054 was studied with respect to the organization, expression, and evolution of the lac genes. Initially the beta-galactosidase gene (lacZ) was cloned by complementation of an Escherichia coli mutant on a 7-kb HpaI fragment. Nucleotide sequence analysis of the complete fragment revealed part of ...
متن کاملRegulation of expression of the Lactobacillus pentosus xylAB operon.
The xylose cluster of Lactobacillus pentosus consists of five genes, two of which, xylAB, form an operon and code for the enzymes involved in the catabolism of xylose, while a third encodes a regulatory protein, XylR. By introduction of a multicopy plasmid carrying the xyl operator and by disruption of the chromosomal xylR gene, it was shown that L. pentosus xylR encodes a repressor. Constituti...
متن کاملModeling and Property Verification of Lactose Operon Regulation
Understanding biochemical pathways is one of the big challenges of the field of molecular biology nowadays. Computer science can contribute in this area in a variety of ways. One of them is providing formalisms and tools to simulate and check properties of pathways. One formalism that is well known and suited for modeling concurrent and distributed systems is Milner’s Calculus of Communicating ...
