Identification of genes encoding a novel ABC transporter in Lactobacillus delbrueckii for inulin polymers uptake
Abstract Lactobacillus delbrueckii JCM 1002T grows on highly polymerized inulin-type fructans as its sole carbon source. When it was grown on inulin, a > 10 kb long gene cluster inuABCDEF (Ldb1381-1386) encoding a plausible ABC transporter was suggested to be induced, since a transcriptome analys...
