The intestinal retention and persistence of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are strain-specific and affected by the bacterial surface components. However, the contribution of surface adhesins of LAB to intestinal adhesion and colonization remains unclear. In the present study, seven gene knockout mutants (genes related to surface adhesin synthesis) of
Xiao et al. (Wed,) studied this question.
