Experimental Evolution Reveals a Novel Ene Reductase That Detoxifies α,β-Unsaturated Aldehydes in Listeria monocytogenes

ABSTRACT The plant essential oil component trans-cinnamaldehyde (t-CIN) exhibits antibacterial activity against a broad range of foodborne pathogenic bacteria, including L. monocytogenes, but its mode of action is not fully understood. In this study, several independent mutants of L. monocytogenes w...
