Amycolatopsis methanolica sp. nov., a facultatively methylotrophic actinomycete.
The generic position of a gram-positive, facultatively methylotrophic actinomycete known as Nocardia sp. strain 239 was determined by comparing reverse transcriptase sequences of 16S rRNA. The assignment of the organism to the genus Amycolatopsis was strongly supported by chemotaxonomic and morphological data. A comparison with the type strains of validly described Amycolatopsis species showed ...
متن کاملTetrazolium-dye-linked alcohol dehydrogenase of the methylotrophic actinomycete Amycolatopsis methanolica is a three-component complex.
Tetrazolium-dye-linked alcohol dehydrogenase (TD-ADH) of Amycolatopsis methanolica could be resolved into three protein components, which have been purified. Each of the components has the ability to reconstitute TD-ADH activity when combined with the other two. Component 1 is identical to the previously characterized methanol:N,N'-dimethyl-4-nitrosoaniline oxidoreductase (MNO), a decameric pro...
متن کاملA plasmid from the methylotrophic actinomycete Amycolatopsis methanolica capable of site-specific integration.
Amycolatopsis methanolica contains a 13.3-kb plasmid (pMEA300) which is present both in the free state and integrated at a unique genomic location. A 2.1-kb pMEA300 DNA fragment was sequenced, revealing the putative attP site and two open reading frames, xis and int, showing similarity to genes encoding excisionases and integrases, respectively.
متن کاملMutational analysis of primary alcohol metabolism in the methylotrophic actinomycete Amycolatopsis methanolica
Mutants of the methylotrophic actinomycete Amycolaropsis methanolica unable to grow on methanol as carbon source were isolated and characterized. Mutants specifically affected in methanol utilization were deficient in formaldehyde assimilation. Mutants blocked in the first step of primary alcohol oxidation (Cl-C4) had lost activity of the tetrazolium-dependent alcohol dehydrogenase, a three-com...
متن کاملAmycolatopsis australiensis sp. nov., an actinomycete isolated from arid soils.
The taxonomic position of a group of mesophilic actinomycetes isolated from arid Australian soils was determined using a polyphasic approach. The organisms shared chemical and morphological markers typical of members of the genus Amycolatopsis. They had identical 16S rRNA gene sequences and formed a distinct phyletic line in the Amycolatopsis mediterranei clade, being most closely related to A....
