A systematic approach to study the pH-dependent release, productivity and product specificity of dextransucrases

Abstract Background Dextransucrases are extracellular enzymes, which catalyze the formation of α-1→6-linked glucose polymers from sucrose. These enzymes are exclusively expressed by lactic acid bacteria, which commonly acidify the extracellular environment due to their physiology. Dextransucrases ar...
