Metabolism of anthracene by a Rhodococcus species.
A Rhodococcus sp. isolated from contaminated river sediment was investigated to determine if the isolate could degrade high molecular mass polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. The Rhodococcus sp. was able to utilize anthracene (53%), phenanthrene (31%), pyrene (13%), and fluoranthene (5%) as sole source of carbon and energy, but not naphthalene or chrysene. In a study of the degradation of anthrac...
متن کاملMetabolism of 2-mercaptobenzothiazole by Rhodococcus rhodochrous.
2-Mercaptobenzothiazole, which is mainly used in the rubber industry as a vulcanization accelerator, is very toxic and is considered to be recalcitrant. We show here for the first time that it can be biotransformed and partially mineralized by a pure-culture bacterial strain of Rhodococcus rhodochrous. Three metabolites, among four detected, were identified.
متن کاملAromatic ring cleavage by a Thiobacillus.
As part of a study on the assimilation of organic compounds by autotrophic microorganisms, enrichment cultures were set up for thiobacilli. A facultatively autotrophic Thiobacillus was isolated in pure culture and grew heterotrophically on many organic compounds including p-hydroxybenzoate (PHBz). Since degradation of aromatic compounds is carried out by a limited range of bacterial genera, the...
متن کاملRing Chromosome 18: A Case Report
Ring chromosomes are rare chromosomal disorders that usually appear to occur de novo. A ring chromosome forms when due to deletion both ends of chromosome fuse with each other. Depending on the amount of chromosomal deletion, the clinical manifestations may be different. So, ring 18 syndrome is characterized by severe mental growth retardation as well as microcephaly, brain and ocular malformat...
متن کاملBacterial metabolism of 5-aminosalicylic acid. Initial ring cleavage.
The metabolism of 5-aminosalicylate (5AS) by a bacterial strain, Pseudomonas sp. BN9, was studied. Intact cells of Pseudomonas sp. BN9 grown with 5AS oxidized 5AS and 2,5-dihydroxybenzoate (gentisate), whereas cells grown with gentisate oxidized only the growth substrate of all substituted salicylates tested. Cell extracts from Pseudomonas sp. BN9 catalysed the stoichiometric reaction of 1 mol ...
