TL;DR: Phylogenetic analyses, comparison of gene content across the group, and reconstruction of ancestral gene sets indicate a combination of extensive gene loss and key gene acquisitions via horizontal gene transfer during the coevolution of lactic acid bacteria with their habitats.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biochemistry, genetics, and applications of exopolysaccharide production in Streptococcus thermophilus: A review
Jeffery R. Broadbent,Donald J. McMahon,Dennis L. Welker,Craig J. Oberg,Craig J. Oberg,Sylvain Moineau +5 more
TL;DR: The understanding of the genetics, physiology, and functionality of bacterial exopolysaccharides continues to improve, novel applications for polysaccharide-producing cultures are likely to emerge inside and outside the dairy industry.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of the Complete Genome Sequences of Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis DSM 10140 and Bl-04
Rodolphe Barrangou,E.P. Briczinski,E.P. Briczinski,Lindsay L. Traeger,Joseph R. Loquasto,Melissa Richards,Philippe Horvath,Anne Claire Coûté-Monvoisin,Gregory Leyer,Snjezana Rendulic,James L. Steele,Jeffery R. Broadbent,T. S. Oberg,Edward G. Dudley,Stephan C. Schuster,Dennis A. Romero,Robert F. Roberts +16 more
TL;DR: The high degree of genome conservation observed between the two strains in terms of size, organization, and sequence is indicative of a genomically monomorphic subspecies and explains the inability to differentiate the strains by standard techniques such as pulsed-field gel electrophoresis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of Streptococcus Thermophilus MR-1C Capsular Exopolysaccharide in Cheese Moisture Retention
Deborah Low,Jeffrey A. Ahlgren,Diane Horne,Donald J. McMahon,Craig J. Oberg,Jeffery R. Broadbent +5 more
TL;DR: Chemical analysis of the S. thermophilus MR-1C EPS indicated that the polymer has a novel basic repeating unit composed of d-galactose, l-rhamnose, andl-fucose in a ratio of 5:2:1, which confirms the role of EPS in cheese moisture retention.
Journal ArticleDOI
External concentration of organic acid anions and pH: key independent variables for studying how organic acids inhibit growth of bacteria in mildly acidic foods.
TL;DR: An approach for directing internal anion levels by controlling external concentration of anions and pH is advocated because it presents an additional opportunity to study the mechanisms by which organic acids inhibit bacterial growth.
