Rhodococcus erythropolis Encephalitis in Patient Receiving Rituximab
To the Editor: Rhodococcus spp. infections occur predominantly in immunocompromised patients, and most infections are caused by Rhodococcus equi (1). Seven cases of R. erythropolis infections in humans have been described (2–8). None of these cases included a central nervous system infection (Table). We report a case of R. erythropolis meningoencephalitis in a patient with rheumatoid arthritis ...
متن کاملProduction of Biosurfactant by Hydrocarbon Degrading Rhodococcus Ruber and Rhodococcus Erythropolis
There is world wide concern about the liberation of hydrocarbons in the environment, both from industrial activities and from accidental spills of oil and oil-related compounds. Biosurfactants, which are natural emulsifiers of hydrocarbons, are produced by some bacteria, fungi and yeast. They are polymers, totally or partially extracellular, with an amphipathyc structure, which allows them to f...
متن کاملRhodococcus erythropolis DCL14 contains a novel degradation pathway for limonene.
Strain DCL14, which is able to grow on limonene as a sole source of carbon and energy, was isolated from a freshwater sediment sample. This organism was identified as a strain of Rhodococcus erythropolis by chemotaxonomic and genetic studies. R. erythropolis DCL14 also assimilated the terpenes limonene-1,2-epoxide, limonene-1,2-diol, carveol, carvone, and (-)-menthol, while perillyl alcohol was...
متن کاملBiochemical identification and biophysical characterization of a channel-forming protein from Rhodococcus erythropolis.
Organic solvent extracts of whole cells of the gram-positive bacterium Rhodococcus erythropolis contain a channel-forming protein. It was identified by lipid bilayer experiments and purified to homogeneity by preparative sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). The pure protein had a rather low molecular mass of about 8.4 kDa, as judged by SDS-PAGE. SDS-resistant ...
متن کاملBioremediation potential of a phenol degrading bacterium, Rhodococcus erythropolis SKO-1
Biodegradation of phenol is a major focus of toxic organic compound degradation by microorganisms isolated from polluted areas. An increasing number of bacteria and fungi possessing unique biodegradation capabilities have been isolated in recent years. In this study a new isolate, Rhodococcus erythropolis SKO-1, from polluted soils in the Tehran oil refinery region, is reported. Identificati...
