Thiamine plays a critical role in the acid tolerance of listeria monocytogenes
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2011-11-14)
Understanding the molecular basis of acid tolerance in the food-borne pathogen Listeria monocytogenes is important as this property contributes to survival in the food-chain and enhances survival within infected hosts. The ...
Divergent evolution of the activity and regulation of the glutamate decarboxylase systems in listeria monocytogenes egd-e and 10403s: roles in virulence and acid tolerance
(Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2014-11-11)
The glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) system has been shown to be important for the survival of Listeria monocytogenes in low pH environments. The bacterium can use this faculty to maintain pH homeostasis under acidic conditions. ...
