Title: In vivo expression of the Lactobacillus brevis S-layer gene. Author: Kahala M, Savijoki K, Palva A. Journal: J Bacteriol; 1997 Jan; 179(1):284-6. PubMed ID: 8982011. Abstract: Lactobacillus brevis possesses a surface layer protein (SlpA) with tightly regulated synthesis. The slpA gene is expressed by two adjacent promoters, P1 and P2. The level of P2-derived transcripts was approximately 10 times higher than that of P1-derived transcripts throughout the entire growth of L. brevis. The half-lives of slpA transcripts were shown to be exceptionally long (14 min).[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
