Preferred hexoses influence long-term memory and induction of lactose catabolism by <i>Streptococcus mutans</i>

2018-04-13

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Bacteria prioritize sugar metabolism via carbohydrate catabolite repression, which regulates global gene expression to optimize the catabolism of preferred substrates. Here, we report an unusual long-term memory effect in certain Streptococcus mutans strains that alters adaptation to growth on lactose after prior exposure to glucose or fructose. In strain GS-5, cells that were first cultured on...
