Lactococcus lactis lactis is preferred for making soft cheeses and produces glutamate decarboxylase. Lactococcus lactis cremoris is preferred for making hard cheeses. It does not contain glutamate decarboxylase due to a frameshift mutation resulting in nonfunctioning proteins.Lactococcus lactis is so important in the cheese making industry, there is petitioning to make it the Wisconsin State Microbe.. lactis is a facultative anaerobe that converts carbohydrates into lactic acid by lactic acid fermentation. The lactic acid fermentation can produce L-lactic acid and D-lactic acid at low pH. When added to milk, the bacterium uses enzymes to produce ATP from lactose the byproduct of which is lactic acid.
Other names[edit] Also known as the Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN) or the Federal Tax Identification Number, the EIN is a unique nine-digit number assigned by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to business entities operating in the United States for the purposes of identification.
This authority was broadened in 1961 by 26 USC 6109. An EIN is usually written in the form 00-0000000 whereas a Social Security Number is usually written in the form 000-00-0000 in order to differentiate between the two. There are EIN Decoders on the web that can identify in what state the company registered the EIN.
