Abstract

Yogurt starter is a microbial material composed of lactic acid bacteria (LAB), mainly Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus. The two-component signal transduction system (TCS) composed of the transmembrane receptor histidine protein kinase and the homologous intracytoplasmic response regulator protein is a common signal mechanism in bacteria, which enables bacteria to sense external stimuli and regulate their own physiological and biochemical processes. Compared with the model bacteria such as Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, and Streptomyces coelicolor, the response and regulation mechanism of LAB TCS is lack of systematic elucidation. This article summarizes the progress in the TCS of L. delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus and S. thermophilus, with a view to provide help for the research of LAB TCSs and the industrial production control of yogurt.
