Characterization of a galactokinase-positive recombinant strain of Streptococcus thermophilus
Article Abstract:
The complementation of Gal- strain Streptococcus thermophilus SMQ-301 with Streptococcus salivarius galK, the gene that codes for galactokinase, and the characterization of recombinant strain SMQ-301K01 is reported. It was seen that the recombinant Gal(super +) strain performed better than the wild-type Gal(super -) strain.
