Naturally occurring genetic transfer of hydrogen-oxidizing ability between strains of Alcaligenes eutrophus.
Mutants defective in chemolithoautotrophic growth (Aut-) have been isolated from Alcaligenes eutrophus strains H16, N9A, G27, and TF93. Spontaneous Aut- mutants were obtained only with strain TF93. Mutants of the other strains were selected after conventional mutagenesis or treatment with mitomycin. Most of the mutants, including the spontaneous Aut- strains, lacked hydrogenase activity (Hox-) ...
متن کاملIsolation of antibacterial material-producing bacteria from saline soil
Saline soils are widely spread in Iran. These intact soils are a great source for the isolation of new bacteria with highly functional metabolites in biotechnology. Actinomycete strains were isolated on starch casein agar and ISP2 with different concentrations of sodium chloride (0, 5 and 10%) from treated soil samples. Pure colonies were cultured on a casein glycerol medium. After complete gro...
متن کاملHydrogen Oxidizing Bacteria as Poly(hydroxybutyrate) Producers
Batch culture of Ralstonia eutropha using the recycled gas closed circuit culture system was conducted in order to develop a practical fermentation system for industrial autotrophic culture for poly (hydroxybutrate) production. The gas phase of the culture system consisted of substrate gas so that gases in this culture could be recycled as long as the amount of the gas consumed would be repleni...
متن کاملInterdomain conjugal transfer of DNA from bacteria to archaea.
Escherichia coli transforms the methanogenic archaeon Methanococcus maripaludis at frequencies ranging from 0.2 x 10(-6) to 2 x 10(-6) per recipient cell. Transformation requires cell-to-cell contact, oriT, and tra functions, is insensitive to DNase I, and otherwise displays hallmarks of conjugation.
متن کاملHydrogen metabolism in aerobic hydrogen-oxidizing bacteria.
A survey on organisms able to use molecular hydrogen as electron donor in the energy-yielding process is presented. In the group of the aerobic hydrogen-oxidizing bacteria so far two types of hydrogenases have been encountered, a NAD-reducing, soluble enzyme (H2 : NAD oxidoreductase) and a membrane-bound enzyme unable to reduce pyridine nucleotides. With respect to the distribution of both type...
