HspR mutations are naturally selected in Bifidobacterium longum when successive heat shock treatments are applied.

Abstract excerpt

The development of molecular tools allowed light to be shed on several widespread genetic mechanisms aiming at limiting the effect of molecular damage on bacterial survival. For some bacterial taxa, there are limited tools in the genetic toolbox, which restricts the possibilities to investigate the molecular basis of their stress response. In that case, an alternative strategy is to study genetic variants of a...
