Catabolism of Naphthalenesulfonic Acids by Pseudomonas sp. A3 and Pseudomonas sp. C22

Glyphosate catabolism by Pseudomonas sp. strain PG2982.

The pathway for the degradation of glyphosate (N-phosphonomethylglycine) by Pseudomonas sp. PG2982 has been determined by using metabolic radiolabeling experiments. Radiorespirometry experiments utilizing [3-14C]glyphosate revealed that approximately 50 to 59% of the C-3 carbon was oxidized to CO2. Fractionation of stationary-phase cells labeled with [3-14C]glyphosate revealed that from 45 to 4...

Pseudomonas knackmussii sp. nov.

The taxonomic position of Pseudomonas sp. B13(T), isolated as a 3-chlorobenzoate-degrading organism and used for several groundbreaking studies on the enzymology and genetics of the degradative pathway for haloaromatic compounds, was studied in detail. The previously performed physiological studies, the detection of ubiquinone Q-9, the polyamine pattern with putrescine and spermidine as major p...

Transport of methylamine by Pseudomonas sp. MA.

Pseudomonas sp. MA grows on methylamines as a sole source of carbon, nitrogen, and energy. The transport of methylamine into the organism was investigated. It was found that this organism possesses an inducible transport system for methylamine having the following physical parameters: pH optimum, 7.2; temperature optimum, 30 to 35 degrees C; Km, 1 to 30 mM; Vmax, 90 to 120 nmol/min per mg (dry ...

Development and dynamics of Pseudomonas sp. biofilms.

Pseudomonas sp. strain B13 and Pseudomonas putida OUS82 were genetically tagged with the green fluorescent protein and the Discosoma sp. red fluorescent protein, and the development and dynamics occurring in flow chamber-grown two-colored monospecies or mixed-species biofilms were investigated by the use of confocal scanning laser microscopy. Separate red or green fluorescent microcolonies were...
