Cellobiose vs Glucose at time point T2

ABSTRACT: Comparison of the Streptococcus pneumoniae D39 wild type in M17 medium+ 0.5 % (w/v) Cellobiose (CM17) compared to M17 medium+ 0.5 % (w/v) Glucose (GM17) hervasted at time point T2 The human pathogen Streptococcus pneumoniae has the ability to use the carbon- and energy source cellobiose due to the presence of a cellobiose-utilizing gene cluster (cel locus) in its genome. This system is regulated by the cellobiose-dependent transcriptional activator CelR, which has been previously shown to contribute to pneumococcal virulence. To get a broader understanding of the response of S. pneumoniae to cellobiose, we compared the pneumococcal transcriptome during growth on glucose as the main carbon source to that with cellobiose as the main carbon source. The expression of various carbon metabolic g
