2007 journal article
Modification of Lactobacillus beta-glucuronidase activity by random mutagenesis
GENE, 389(2), 122–127.
author keywords: Lactobacillus gasseri gusA; gene; reporter enzyme; pH range; Epicurian coli
MeSH headings : Amino Acid Sequence; Amino Acid Substitution; Bacterial Proteins / chemistry; Bacterial Proteins / genetics; Bacterial Proteins / metabolism; Cloning, Molecular; DNA, Bacterial; Escherichia coli / enzymology; Escherichia coli / genetics; Genes, Bacterial; Glucuronidase / chemistry; Glucuronidase / genetics; Glucuronidase / metabolism; Hydrogen-Ion Concentration; Lactobacillus / enzymology; Lactobacillus / genetics; Molecular Sequence Data; Mutagenesis; Sequence Alignment; Sequence Analysis, DNA; Transformation, Bacterial
TL;DR:
The modified GusA3 enzyme has expanded potential for use as a reporter enzyme in expression hosts that are not acidophilic, as well as lactic acid bacteria and other microorganisms that grow in acidifying environments.

2005 journal article
Complete genome sequence of the probiotic lactic acid bacterium Lactobacillus acidophilus NCFM
PROCEEDINGS OF THE NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, 102(11), 3906–3912.
author keywords: adhesion; stress response; proteolytic system; sugar metabolism; in silico analysis
MeSH headings : Bacterial Adhesion / genetics; Bacteriocins / genetics; Bacteriophages / genetics; Bacteriophages / pathogenicity; Carbohydrate Metabolism; Computational Biology; Genome, Bacterial; Lactobacillus acidophilus / genetics; Lactobacillus acidophilus / metabolism; Lactobacillus acidophilus / virology; Molecular Sequence Data; Peptide Hydrolases / genetics; Prophages / genetics; Sequence Analysis, DNA; Transposases / genetics
TL;DR:
These features within the genome sequence of L. acidophilus are likely to contribute to the organisms' gastric survival and promote interactions with the intestinal mucosa and microbiota.

2001 journal article
Examination of lactococcal bacteriophage c2 DNA replication using two-dimensional agarose gel electrophoresis
GENE, 278(1-2), 101–106.
author keywords: bacteriophage; Lactococcus; origin of replication; theta replication
MeSH headings : Bacteriophages / genetics; Base Composition; Blotting, Southern; DNA Replication; DNA, Viral / genetics; Electrophoresis, Agar Gel; Electrophoresis, Gel, Two-Dimensional; Genome, Viral; Lactococcus lactis / virology; Replication Origin / genetics
TL;DR:
2D data revealed that c2 replicates via a theta mechanism and localized the initiation of theta replication to the ori region of the c2 genome.
