General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function gamma-aminobutyric acid with several physiological functions is biosynthesized via the irreversible alpha-decarboxylation of L-glutamate catalysed by glutamate decarboxylase (GAD). Streptococcus salivarius ssp. thermophilus is widely applied to the dairy Streptococcus thermophilus
