Studies on the filamentous gliding bacteria Vitreoscilla stercoraria
Strains of Vitreoscil/a stercoraria were isolated from the environment and characterised . Cell width, motility and requirement of each strain for sodium chloride were investigated. Two strains were selected for further study and the effect of monensin and FCCP on growth of the strains was investigated. One strain of Vitreoscil/a (l813) was chosen for further study, cells from strain LB 13 were...
متن کاملThe Biochemistry of Vitreoscilla hemoglobin
The hemoglobin (VHb) from Vitreoscilla was the first bacterial hemoglobin discovered. Its structure and function have been extensively investigated, and engineering of a wide variety of heterologous organisms to express VHb has been performed to increase their growth and productivity. This strategy has shown promise in applications as far-ranging as the production of antibiotics and petrochemic...
متن کاملHemoglobin biosynthesis in Vitreoscilla stercoraria DW: cloning, expression, and characterization of a new homolog of a bacterial globin gene.
In the strictly aerobic, gram-negative bacterium Vitreoscilla strain C1, oxygen-limited growth conditions create a more than 50-fold increase in the expression of a homodimeric heme protein which was recognized as the first bacterial hemoglobin (Hb). The recently determined crystal structure of Vitreoscilla Hb has indicated that the heme pocket of microbial globins differs from that of eukaryot...
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequence of Vitreoscilla filiformis (ATCC 15551), Used as a Cosmetic Ingredient
We report the first complete genome sequence of a Vitreoscilla filiformis strain (ATCC 15551) that is used in the cosmetic industry as Vitreoscilla ferment. The assembled genome consisted of one chromosome and two plasmids. These data will provide valuable information and important insights into the physiology of this filamentous organism.
متن کاملImprovement of atopic dermatitis skin symptoms by Vitreoscilla filiformis bacterial extract.
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronically relapsing inflammatory skin disease. The first line treatment of AD relies on the daily use of emollients to restore the skin barrier impairment associated with the disease. Vitreoscilla filiformis (V.f.) is a non photosynthetic bacterium and extracts of V.f. are endowed with properties which balance cutaneous immune-homeostasis. The aim of our study was ...
