Although Carnobacterium maltaromaticum derived from dairy products has been used as a lactic acid bacterium industrially, several studies have reported potential pathogenicity and disease outbreaks. Because strains derived from diseased fish and dairy products are considered potentially virulent and beneficial, respectively, their genotypic and phenotypic characteristics have attracted considerable attention. A genome-wide comparison of 30 genome sequences (13, 3, and 14 strains from diseased aquatic animals, dairy products, and processed food, respectively) was carried out. Additionally, one dairy and two nondairy strains were incubated in nutrient-rich (diluted liquid media) and nutrient-deficient environments (PBS) at pH 10 to compare their alkaline resistance in accordance with different nutritional environments by measuring their optical density and viable bacterial cell counts. Interestingly, only dairy strains carried 11 shared accessory genes, and 8 genes were strongly involved in the V-type ATPase gene cluster. Given that V-type ATPase contributes to resistance to alkaline pH and salts using proton motive force generated via sodium translocation across the membrane, C. maltaromaticum with a V-type ATPase might use nutrients in food under high pH. Indeed, the dairy strain carrying the V-type ATPase exhibited the highest alkaline resistance only in the nutrient-rich environment with significant upregulation of V-type ATPase expression. These results suggest that the gene cluster of V-type ATPase and increased alkaline resistance of dairy strains facilitate adaptation in the long-term ripening of alkaline dairy products.
