ABSTRACT
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) continue as an important group of gram-positive bacteria that have been extensively exploited in food industries and various biotechnological applications. Some LAB species are, however, opportunistic pathogens and were reported to be associated with overwhelming number of human infections. During the use of LAB in industry or over the course of human infection, these bacteria are exposed to environmental stress. While LAB display adaptive mechanisms to cope with adverse conditions, the regulation of these mechanisms remains to be elucidated. Recent completion of genome sequencing of various LAB strains combined with the ...
