Anthranilate synthase subunit organization in Chromobacterium violaceum.
Tryptophan is an aromatic amino acid used for protein synthesis and cellular growth. Chromobacterium violaceum ATCC 12472 uses two tryptophan molecules to synthesize violacein, a secondary metabolite of pharmacological interest. The genome analysis of this bacterium revealed that the genes trpA-F and pabA-B encode the enzymes of the tryptophan pathway in which the first reaction is the conversi...
متن کاملChromobacterium violaceum infection.
Chromobacterium violaceum infection is confined to the tropical and subtropical areas, with almost all reported cases occurring in the Southeast. The most common feature of this infection is sepsis, followed by cutaneous involvement and liver abscesses. Treatment consists of surgical drainage of purulent collections and appropriate antimicrobial therapy, such as chloramphenicol, gentamicin, imi...
متن کاملDenitrification by Chromobacterium violaceum.
One host (Rana catesbiana)-associated and two free-living mesophilic strains of bacteria with violet pigmentation and biochemical characteristics of Chromobacterium violaceum were isolated from freshwater habitats. Cells of each freshly isolated strain and of strain ATCC 12472 (the neotype strain) grew anaerobically with glucose as the sole carbon and energy source. The major fermentation produ...
