Citrate sensing by the C4-dicarboxylate/citrate sensor kinase DcuS of Escherichia coli: binding site and conversion of DcuS to a C4-dicarboxylate- or citrate-specific sensor.
The histidine protein kinase DcuS of Escherichia coli senses C(4)-dicarboxylates and citrate by a periplasmic domain. The closely related sensor kinase CitA binds citrate, but no C(4)-dicarboxylates, by a homologous periplasmic domain. CitA is known to bind the three carboxylate and the hydroxyl groups of citrate by sites C1, C2, C3, and H. DcuS requires the same sites for C(4)-dicarboxylate se...
متن کاملLantibiotics from Geobacillus thermodenitrificans.
The lantibiotic nisin has been used as an effective food preservative to combat food-borne pathogens for over 40 y. Despite this successful use, nisin's stability at pH 7 is limited. Herein, we describe a nisin analog encoded on the genome of the thermophilic bacterium Geobacillus thermodenitrificans NG80-2. This analog termed geobacillin I was obtained by heterologous expression in Escherichia...
متن کاملGenome Sequence of a Thermophilic Bacillus, Geobacillus thermodenitrificans DSM465
Geobacillus thermodenitrificans NG80-2 encodes a LadA-mediated alkane degradation pathway, while G. thermodenitrificans DSM465 cannot utilize alkanes. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of G. thermodenitrificans DSM465, which may help reveal the genomic differences between these two strains in regards to the biodegradation of alkanes.
متن کاملOrganic-Solvent and Surfactant Tolerant Thermostable Lipase, Isolated from a Thermophilic Bacterium, Geobacillus thermodenitrificans IBRL-nra
Lipases (triacylglycerol acylhydrolase, EC 3.1.1.3), catalyze the hydrolysis of long-chain triglycerides with the formation of diacylglyceride, monoglyceride, glycerol and fatty acids. Lipases are actively used in various industries which include food and diary, pharmaceuticals, organic synthesis and detergent and cosmetics. Thermostable lipases are commercially significant for their potential ...
متن کاملCrystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of L-arabinose isomerase from thermophilic Geobacillus kaustophilus.
L-arabinose isomerase (AI), which catalyzes the isomerization of L-arabinose to L-ribulose, can also convert D-galactose to D-tagatose, a natural sugar replacer, which is of commercial interest in the food and healthcare industries. Intriguingly, mesophilic and thermophilic AIs showed different substrate preferences and metal requirements in catalysis and different thermostabilities. However, t...
