Alcohol dehydrogenase from Methylobacterium organophilum.
The alcohol dehydrogenase from Methylobacterium organophilum, a facultative methane-oxidizing bacterium, has been purified to homogeneity as indicated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis. It has several properties in common with the alcohol dehydrogenases from other methylotrophic bacteria. The active enzyme is a dimeric protein, both subunits having molecular weights of about 62,000....
متن کاملPolyhydroxyalkanoates accumulation by Methylobacterium organophilum CZ-2 during methane degradation using citrate or propionate as cosubstrates.
Methylobacterium organophilum CZ-2 synthesized polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) under nitrogen limitation with CH4 as carbon source and when either citrate or propionate was added as cosubstrates. The highest PHAs content (yPHA) in closed flasks was obtained in the CH4-citrate and CH4-propionate experiments attaining values of 0.82 and 0.68, respectively. M. organophilum CZ-2 cultivated in bioreact...
متن کاملProduction of poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) by Methylobacterium organophilum isolated from a methanotrophic consortium in a two-phase partition bioreactor.
The biodegradation of methane, a greenhouse gas, and the accumulation of poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) were studied using a methanotrophic consortium and an isolated strain thereof. The specific rates for methane consumption were 100 and [Formula: see text] for the isolate and the consortium, respectively. Also the effect of including 10% (vv(-1)) of silicone oil in a two-phase partitioning bior...
متن کاملLanthanide-Dependent Regulation of Methylotrophy in Methylobacterium aquaticum Strain 22A
Methylobacterium species are representative of methylotrophic bacteria. Their genomes usually encode two types of methanol dehydrogenases (MDHs): MxaF and XoxF. The former is a Ca2+-dependent enzyme, and the latter was recently determined to be a lanthanide-dependent enzyme that is necessary for the expression of mxaF. This finding revealed the unexpected and important roles of lanthanides in b...
متن کاملNucleotide sequence of the mxcQ and mxcE genes, required for methanol dehydrogenase synthesis in Methylobacterium organophilum XX: a two-component regulatory system.
Nucleotide sequence analysis of the mxcQ and mxcE loci, required for the synthesis of methanol dehydrogenase in Methylobacterium organophilum XX, has revealed two open reading frames that show significant similarity to sequences of prokaryotic two-component systems, especially MxaY and MxaX proteins of another methylotrophic bacterium, Paracoccus denitrificans. Cell-free extracts and DNA-column...
