 PROTEOMES

INTRODUCTION

Current proteomic researches in the Food Quality and Security (Qualité et Sécurité des Aliments [QuaSA]) team of the Microbiology Research Unit are focused on (i) the analysis of the proteome of the foodborne pathogen Listeria monocytogenes (2-D PAGE database), (ii) the study of the variations of L. monocytogenes and Staphylococcus xylosus (starter for fermented milk and meat products) subproteomes during growth in biofilm, from the adhesion on an abiotic surface to the biofilm formation and ageing, (iii) the comparative subproteome analysis of L. monocytogenes strains from different serovars and origins and (iv) the study of adaptative response to environmental and technological stresses of foodborne pathogen bacteria or spoilage bacteria of meat products.
