Identification of Genes Required for Glucan Exopolysaccharide Production in Lactobacillus johnsonii Suggests a Novel Biosynthesis Mechanism

Lactobacillus johnsonii FI9785 makes two capsular exopolysaccharides—a heteropolysaccharide (EPS2) encoded by the eps operon and a branched glucan homopolysaccharide (EPS1). The homopolysaccharide is synthesized in the absence of sucrose, and there are no typical glucansucrase genes in the genome. Q...
