Journal ArticleDOI

The predicted secretome of Lactobacillus plantarum WCFS1 sheds light on interactions with its environment.

TL;DR: The functional annotation of extracellular proteins was improved using a wide variety of bioinformatics methods, including domain analysis and phylogenetic profiling, to gain insight into the mechanisms underlying interactions of this bacterium with its environment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional Analysis of Three Plasmids from Lactobacillus plantarum

TL;DR: Plasmid pWCFS103 was demonstrated to be a conjugative plasmid, as it could be transferred to L. plantarum NC8 and confers arsenate and arsenite resistance, which can be used as selective markers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metabolic engineering of lactic acid bacteria: overview of the approaches and results of pathway rerouting involved in food fermentations.

TL;DR: There have been recent successes in metabolic engineering in these lactic acid bacteria, including examples of changes in both primary metabolism (diacetyl and alanine) and secondary metabolism (exopolysaccharides and flavour).
Journal ArticleDOI

Spatial and temporal expression of Lactobacillus plantarum genes in the gastrointestinal tracts of mice.

TL;DR: Results confirm that L. plantarum displays specific and differential responses at various sites along the mammalian intestine.
