Journal ArticleDOI
Genes and gene expression in Lactococcus bacteriophages
TL;DR: Advances in molecular biology of lactococcal bacteriophages will be discussed with a view towards the development of novel and more effective phage defenses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Conjugal transfer of plasmid DNA between streptococci immobilized in calcium alginate gel beads.
L R Steenson,Todd R. Klaenhammer +1 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrated efficient conjugal transfer of plasmid DNA among alginate-immobilized streptococcal cells and suggested that this method could be used as an alternative to conventional solid-surface and filter matings with these organisms.
Restriction andModification Activities fromStreptococcus lactis ME2AreEncoded byaSelf-Transmissible Plasmid, pTN20,ThatFormsCointegrates during Mobilization ofLactose-Fermenting Abilityt
TL;DR: This is the first report that defines selftransmissible restriction andmodification plasmids inthelactic streptococci, and suggests thatphenotypic expression ofR+/M+ andTra+ isaffected by coresident Lac'plasmids.
Journal Article
C.LlaI is a bifunctional regulatory protein of the llaI restriction modification operon from Lactococcus lactis.
Book ChapterDOI
Genomics and Proteomics of Foodborne Microorganisms
TL;DR: This chapter utilizes comparative and functional genomics and proteomics to demonstrate the role of SpaC in mucin binding and potentially its importance to the retention of some lactobacilli in the gastrointestinal tract.
