1. A method to increase the stress resistance of a Bifidobacterium comprising the step of constitutively upregulating an expression of a gene selected from the group consisting of DnaK, DnaJ, GrpE, C1pB and combinations thereof, by introducing at least one point mutation in the hspR gene of the Bifidobacterium so that a characteristic selected from the group consisting of HspR expression, HspR functioning and a combination thereof is hindered. |
