Popis: Abstract Background Lactococcus lactis strain Plasma (LC-Plasma) possesses strong stimulatory activity for plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) via the TLR9-Myd88 pathway. To reveal the effective lactic acid bacteria (LAB) genome structure for pDCs stimulatory activity, we performed in vitro screening, using randomly selected 200 bp DNA fragments from the LC-Plasma genome. Results We found that the CpG motif copy number in the fragments was positively and significantly correlated with pDCs stimulatory activity (R = 0.491, p
