Research Abstract |
Acetic acid bacteria (AAB) are characterized by their ability to transform alcohols and sugar-alcohols into their corresponding organic acids. To acquire new metabolic systems practicable in high sugar concentration and to achieve a model system to comprehend environmental responses of AAB, we have performed comparative genome, transcriptome and proteome analyses First, to determine draft genome DNA sequences of 25 AAB, we carried out DNA sequencing, assembling and gene extraction by using a next generation sequencer. We will present our recent data for the metabolic and gene regulations by the stress of high glucose concentration.
