Galactose Metabolism Plays a Crucial Role in Biofilm Formation by <named-content content-type="genus-species">Bacillus subtilis</named-content>
ABSTRACT Galactose is a common monosaccharide that can be utilized by all living organisms via the activities of three main enzymes that make up the Leloir pathway: GalK, GalT, and GalE. In Bacillus subtilis, the absence of GalE causes sensitivity to exogenous galactose, leading to rapid cell lysis....
