Surface proteins with mucus-binding capacity mediate the adherence of LAB to the intestine and are desirable feature for probiotic bacteria, as they can increase persistence and ability of LAB to colonize the intestine. In order to investigate mucus adhesion properties, the presence of genes encoding for adhesion proteins were investigated in three Lactobacillus mucosae strains isolated from goat milk. alactic acid bacteria aGastro-intestinal tract aProbiotic potential1 aABREU, L.
