The use of bacterial luciferase genes as reporter genes in Lactococcus: regulation of the Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis lactose genes.
Lactose metabolism is an important industrial trait in dairy lactococci. In Lactococcus lactis, lactose is taken up via the phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphotransferase system (PEP-PTS) and is subsequently metabolized via the glycolytic and tagatose 6-phosphate pathways. Genes for the lactose-specific PEP-PTS proteins, phospho-beta-galactosidase and tagatose 6-phosphate pathway enzymes are ...
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 کاملGenes but Not Genomes Reveal Bacterial Domestication of Lactococcus Lactis
BACKGROUND The population structure and diversity of Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis, a major industrial bacterium involved in milk fermentation, was determined at both gene and genome level. Seventy-six lactococcal isolates of various origins were studied by different genotyping methods and thirty-six strains displaying unique macrorestriction fingerprints were analyzed by a new multilocus se...
متن کاملIntroduction of peptidase genes from Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. lactis into Lactococcus lactis and controlled expression.
Peptidases PepI, PepL, PepW, and PepG from Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. lactis, which have no counterparts in Lactococcus lactis, and peptidase PepQ were examined to determine their potential to confer new peptidolytic properties to lactococci. Controllable expression of the corresponding genes (pep genes) was achieved by constructing translational fusions with the promoter of the nisA gene...
متن کاملExpression of plant flavor genes in Lactococcus lactis.
Lactic acid bacteria, such as Lactococcus lactis, are attractive hosts for the production of plant-bioactive compounds because of their food grade status, efficient expression, and metabolic engineering tools. Two genes from strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa), encoding an alcohol acyltransferase (SAAT) and a linalool/nerolidol synthase (FaNES), were cloned in L. lactis and actively expressed usin...
