Acid is one of the stresses that foodborne pathogens encounter most frequently. The ability to survive and proliferate in acidic environments is a prerequisite for infection. However, there is limited knowledge about the molecular basis of adaptation of\n                    <jats:italic>L. monocytogenes<\/jats:italic>\n                    to acid. Arginine deiminase (ADI) and agmatine deiminase (AgDI) systems are implicated in bacterial tolerance to acidic environments. Homologues of ADI and AgDI systems have been found in\n                    <jats:italic>L. monocytogenes<\/jats:italic>\n                    lineages I and II strains. Sequence analysis indicated that\n                    <jats:italic>lmo0036<\/jats:italic>\n                    encodes a putative carbamoyltransferase containing conserved motifs and residues important for substrate binding. Lmo0036 acted as an ornithine carbamoyltransferase and putrescine carbamoyltransferase, representing the first example, to our knowledge, that catalyses reversible ornithine and putrescine carbamoyltransfer reactions. Catabolic ornithine and putrescine carbamoyltransfer reactions constitute the second step of ADI and AgDI pathways. However, the equilibrium of\n                    <jats:italic>in vitro<\/jats:italic>\n                    carbamoyltransfer reactions was overwhelmingly towards the anabolic direction, suggesting that catabolic carbamoyltransferase was probably the limiting step of the pathways.\n                    <jats:italic>lmo0036<\/jats:italic>\n                    was induced at the transcriptional level when\n                    <jats:italic>L. monocytogenes<\/jats:italic>\n                    was subjected to low-pH stress. Its expression product in\n                    <jats:italic>Escherichia coli<\/jats:italic>\n                    exhibited higher catabolic carbamoyltransfer activities under acidic conditions. Consistently, absence of this enzyme impaired the growth of\n                    <jats:italic>Listeria<\/jats:italic>\n                    under mild acidic conditions (pH 4.8) and reduced its survival in synthetic human gastric fluid (pH 2.5), and corresponded to a loss in ammonia production, indicating that Lmo0036 was responsible for acid tolerance at both sublethal and lethal pH levels. Furthermore, Lmo0036 played a possible role in\n                    <jats:italic>Listeria<\/jats:italic>\n                    virulence.\n
