Abstract excerpt
The genus Liquorilactobacillus comprises lactic acid bacteria frequently associated with liquid fermentation environments, where they are exposed to multiple stressors such as pH fluctuations, ethanol accumulation, osmotic pressure, and nutrient limitation. Universal stress proteins (USP) are key molecular components that enable bacterial adaptation and persistence under these challenging conditions. In this...
