Proline plays a multifunctional role in several organisms including bacteria in conferring protection under stress conditions. In this paper we report the role of proline in conferring acid tolerance to Bacillus megaterium G18. An acid susceptible mutant of B. megaterium G18 which required proline for its growth under acid stress condition was generated through Tn5 mutagenesis. Further, targeted inactivation of proC involved in osmo-adaptive proline synthesis in B. megaterium G18 resulted in the ...[more]
