Data regarding the growth of Lactobacillus acidophilus NCFM on different carbohydrates and recombinant production of elongation factor G and pyruvate kinase

Abstract

The present study describes the growth of the very well-known probiotic bacterium Lactobacillus acidophilus NCFM on different carbohydrates. Furthermore, recombinant production of putative moonlighting proteins elongation factor G and pyruvate kinase from this bacterium is described. For further and detailed interpretation of the data presented here, please see the research article “Mucin- and carbohydrate-stimulated adhesion and subproteome changes of the probiotic bacterium Lactobacillus acidophilus NCFM” (Celebioglu et al., 2017) [1].

“…The adhesins are covalently anchored to the peptidoglycan layer by a C-terminal Leu-Pro-any-Thr-Gly (LPxTG) motif, which is, also, used for their identification in silico ( Siegel et al, 2017 ). Moreover, cytoplasmic proteins that participate in important housekeeping functions such as carbohydrate metabolism, translation regulation and protein folding, can be found, anchorless, in the cellular envelope acting as adhesins ( Celebioglu et al, 2017 ). These multifunctional proteins, also known as moonlighting proteins, have been identified in animals, plants, yeast and bacteria.…”
