Expression of the atpD gene in probiotic Lactobacillus plantarum strains under in vitro acidic conditions using RT-qPCR
24 Apr 2010
Abstract excerpt
F(1)F(0)-ATPase has been identified as an operon directly involved in the tolerance of probiotic bacteria towards a hostile acidic environment encountered in the stomach. Expression of atpD (a key part of the F(1)F(0)-ATPase operon) gene of the two putative probiotic Lactobacillus plantarum isolates (Lp9 and Lp91) under different in vitro pH conditions which closely mimic the physiological environment prevalent...
