The Synthesis of Serine by Leuconostoc mesenteroides P 60 [PDF]
SUMMARY: Though CO2 is essential for the growth of Leuconostoc mesenteroides strain P 60 in the absence of serine, 14CO2 is not incorporated into serine by the growing organism. The synthesis of serine was further studied by using suspensions of a variant strain of L. mesenteroides P 60 which formed serine more actively than the parent strain. Glycine,

Cell Wall Constituents of Leuconostoc citrovorum and Leuconostoc mesenteroides [PDF]
The cell wall constituents of Leuconostoc citrovorum 8082, L. mesenteroides 10830a, and L. mesenteroides 11449 have been ascertained. All three strains contained glycerol. Glucose and rhamnose were the major reducing sugar constituents.

Optimization of electrotransformation conditions for Leuconostoc mesenteroides subsp. mesenteroides ATCC8293. [PDF]
To establish an efficient genetic transformation protocol for Leuconostoc species, methods for competent-cell preparation and electroporation conditions were optimized.Leuconostoc mesenteroides subsp. mesenteroides ATCC8293 cells were sequentially treated with penicillin G and lysozyme, and the plasmid pLeuCM was subsequently transformed into the cells.
