Cold induced expression of a novel levansucrase gene sacB1 enhances exopolysaccharide production and stress resilience in Leuconostoc mesenteroides by Miguel Fernandez de Ullivarri, Colin Buttimer, Janneke Wijman, Eelco Heintz, Paul Ross, Matthew P. McCusker, Colin Hill

“…Genomic analyses revealed highly conserved biosynthetic clusters for dextran, heteropolysaccharide, and levan. Gene expression profiling showed that levS and sacB_1 were upregulated at 8 °C, while dsrD expression was favoured at 25 °C. …”
