Physiological and regulatory effects of controlled overproduction of five cold shock proteins of lactococcus lactis MG1363

Article Abstract:

Results demonstrate that cold shock treatment initiates a cascade of events mediated by the cold shock proteins in Lactococcus lactis. Data point out that these proteins may confer protection during freezing.

Cold shock proteins of Lactococcus lactis MG1363 are involved in cryoprotection and in the production of cold-induced proteins

Article Abstract:

The 7-kDa cold shock proteins of Lactococcus lactis MG1363 not only protect the bacterium from low temperatures but also regulate the production of non-7-kDa cold-induced proteins. Lactic acid bacteria are used in industrial fermentation and they undergo a variety of temperature changes during this process.

Analysis of the role of 7 kDa cold-shock proteins of Lactococcus lactis MG1363 in cryoprotection

Article Abstract:

Research was conducted to examine the effect of low temperature treatment on the survival of the lactococcus bacterial species after freezing (cryoprotection). Results show that cells shocked to 10 degrees C for 4 h exhibit 7 kD cold-induced proteins which confer a 100-fold cryoprotection.
