Summary of RNA expression in the Levilactobacillus brevis GAD operon. A The RNA sequencing read coverage is indicated by the blue graph in log form for L. brevis Lbr-6108 in MRS with 10,000 μg/mL MSG at T18. B The L. brevis GAD operon is denoted by the orange arrows and putative promoters denoted by lime green arrows. C The DNA sequence pairwise alignment of L. brevis Lbr-6108, Lbr-35, and ATCC 14869 is shown with green showing 100% identity and yellow representing 30–99% identity. Individual GAD operon sequence polymorphism is shown by black lines in the grey bars according to strain designation on the left
