Relaxed control of sugar utilization in Lactobacillus brevis.
Prioritization of sugar consumption is a common theme in bacterial growth and a problem for complete utilization of five and six carbon sugars derived from lignocellulose. Growth studies show that Lactobacillus brevis simultaneously consumes numerous carbon sources and appears to lack normal hierarchical control of carbohydrate utilization. Analysis of several independent L. brevis isolates ind...
متن کاملPyruvate metabolism in Lactobacillus brevis.
The pyruvate metabolism of LactobaciUus plantarum and Latobacillus arabino8su, which according to Bergey (1948) are identical organisms, has been studied by Rowatt (1951) and Nossal (1952). Both these homofermentative lactobacilli were shown to form 3-hydroxybutan-2-one (acetoin) as the main product of their pyruvate metabolism. No one appears to have studied the metabolism of pyruvate by any o...
متن کامل1,3-Propanediol:NAD+ oxidoreductases of Lactobacillus brevis and Lactobacillus buchneri.
In the cofermentation of glycerol with a sugar by Lactobacillus brevis and Lactobacillus buchneri, a 1,3-propanediol:NAD+ oxidoreductase provides an additional method of NADH disposal. The enzyme has been purified from both L. brevis B22 and L. buchneri B190 and found to have properties very similar to those reported for the enzyme from Klebsiella pneumoniae. The enzymes required Mn2+ and are p...
متن کاملFermentation of glucuronic acid by Lactobacillus brevis.
Certain heterofermentative lactic acid bacteria often encountered in food and beverage fermentations are able to utilize the uronic acids as a sole carbon source for energy (J. R. Stamer and B. O. Stoyla, Bacteriol. Proc., p. 1, 1967). Although the mechanisms of uronic acid degradation by gram-negative or phytopathogenic microorganisms have been extensively studied (W. J. Payne and R. A. McRori...
متن کاملEffect of Lactobacillus delbrueckii on Blood Sugar in Diabetic Mice
Background and Aims: Probiotics are defined as live microorganisms that are beneficial to human health. Probiotics are commonly found in some foods such as dairy products or complementary tablets. A recent research shows that probiotics have a significant role in diabetes type 1 and 2 treatment. Among the variety of lactic acid bacteria, Lactobacillus strains are well known in probiotics for th...
