Abstract excerpt
The pyruvate metabolism of a Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis biovar diacetylactis mutant deficient in alpha-acetolactate decarboxylase and its wild-type strain was studied during batch cultivations. A chemically defined medium was used containing glucose as carbon- and energy-source. The alpha-acetolactate decarboxylase deficiency had no effect on the specific growth rate. Addition of citrate was found to...
