Genomic and transcriptomic analysis of Ligilactobacillus salivarius IBB3154-in search of new promoters for vaccine construction.

IMPORTANCE: The genome of the strain Ligilactobacillus salivarius IBB3154 was sequenced, and transcriptome analysis was carried out at two different temperatures, allowing the determination of gene expression levels in response to environmental changes (temperature). Genes with higher expression at 42°C were identified. The use of a reporter gene (ß- glucuronidase) did not confirm the transcriptomic results; it was found that the promoters of the genes sasA1 and sasA2 were active in the presence of bile salts. This opens up new opportunities for the overexpression of genes of other bacterial species in Ligilactobacillus cells in the intestinal environment.
