Identification and disruption of btlA, a locus involved in bile tolerance and general stress resistance in Listeria monocytogenes.

FEMS microbiology letters - 21 Jan 2003

Begley Máire, Hill Colin, Gahan Cormac G M

Abstract excerpt

A transposon Tn917 mutant of Listeria monocytogenes L028 was isolated on the basis of reduced growth on agar adjusted to pH 5.5. The disrupted gene, designated btlA (bile tolerance locus), encodes a putative secondary transporter of the major facilitator superfamily, which has significant homology to yxiO in Bacillus subtilis (lmo1417 in L. monocytogenes EGDe). The mutant demonstrated decreased growth rates...
