The Glutaminase-dependent system confers extreme acid resistance to new species and atypical strains of Brucella [PDF]
Neutralophilic bacteria have developed specific mechanisms to cope with the acid stress encountered in environments such as soil, fermented foods, and host compartments. In Escherichia coli, the glutamate decarboxylase (Gad)-dependent system is extremely
