Abstract
ABSTRACT
The genome sequence of
Lactococcus lactis
revealed that the
ycdB
gene was recently exchanged between lactococci and enterobacteria. The present study of
ycdB
orthologs suggests that
L. lactis
was probably the gene donor and reveals three instances of gene transfer to enterobacteria. Analysis of
ycdB
gene transfer between two
L. lactis
subspecies,
L. lactis
subsp.
lactis
and
L. lactis
subsp.
cremoris
, indicates that the gene can be mobilized, possibly by conjugation.
