Talk:Lactobacillus plantarum and its biological implications

This paper was very well written and exciting throughout. The organization of the paper allowed for an easy ready. The figures chosen were very helpful in understanding the mechanisms of this bacterium, especially the figure illustrating the specifics of its genome. The references should be linked and I think this paper would benefit from explaining a litte more in depth the uptake systems of this bacterium for peptides as this is one of its routine functions. Great work!!! -Ariel Bartholomew

I enjoyed reading about this bacteria. The logical step from what the bacteria is, how it is made up genetically, and its uses made the paper easy to understand. The figure depicting the metabolism of the bacteria is greatly appreciated. As Ariel stated above, it would be useful to describe the process of protein uptake. -Rodney Tucker
