2007 journal article

Characterization of a novel bile-inducible operon encoding a two-component regulatory system in Lactobacillus acidophilus

JOURNAL OF BACTERIOLOGY, 189(13), 4624–4634.

By: E. Pfeiler n, M. Azcarate-Peril n & T. Klaenhammer n

MeSH headings : Bacterial Proteins / genetics; Base Sequence; Bile Acids and Salts / pharmacology; Gene Expression Regulation, Bacterial / drug effects; Gene Order; Genes, Bacterial / genetics; Lactobacillus acidophilus / drug effects; Lactobacillus acidophilus / genetics; Models, Genetic; Molecular Sequence Data; Mutagenesis, Site-Directed; Mutation; Oligonucleotide Array Sequence Analysis; Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction; Transcription, Genetic / drug effects
TL;DR: Functional analysis of the effects of bile on the global transcriptional profile of lactobacillus acidophilus NCFM showed that the operon encoded proteins involved in both bile tolerance and bile sensitivity, indicating that the 2CRS plays a role in bileolerance and that theOperon it resides in is negatively controlled by the RR.
