Cellobiose consumption of strains expressing transporters CdtG and Ls120451. Exponentially growing cells were concentrated and incubated with various concentrations of cellobiose, ranging from 0.10 to 20 g/L. The remaining cellobiose content was measured after 30 minutes and normalized to 1 OD₆₀₀ of cells. The data shown is the average of three replicates together with the standard deviation. P < 0.05 (*) and P < 0.01 (**) as compared to CdtG from the same amount of cellobiose, analysed by two-tailed Student's t-test.
