Glycosyltransferases Expression Changes in Leuconostoc mesenteroides subsp. mesenteroides ATCC 8293 Grown on Different Carbon Sources.

ABSTRACT: Leuconostoc mesenteroides strains are common contributors in fermented foods producing a wide variety of polysaccharides from sucrose through glycosyltransferases (GTFs). These polymers have been proposed as protective barriers against acidity, dehydration, heat, and oxidative stress. Despite its presence in many traditional fermented products and their association with food functional properties, regulation of GTFs expression in Ln. mesenteroides is still poorly understood. The strain Ln. mesenteroides ATCC 8293 contains three glucansucrases genes not found in operons, and three fructansucrases genes arranged in two operons, levLX and levC-scrB, a Glycoside-hydrolase. We described the first differential gene expression analysis of this strain when
