  • Mutants of defective in carbon catabolism regulation
    Patent number: 8551729
    Abstract: The invention relates to the use of mutants of L. casei having at least a mutation impairing the regulation of a carbon catabolite repression (CCR) mechanism involving the PTS protein HPr, for the preparation of a food product. The use of said mutants allows for instance to impart to said food products an improved texture and flavor, and/or a higher content in aroma compounds.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 30, 2009
    Date of Patent: October 8, 2013
