Methylotrophic metabolism is advantageous for Methylobacterium extorquens during colonization of Medicago truncatula under competitive conditions.
Facultative methylotrophic bacteria of the genus Methylobacterium are commonly found in association with plants. Inoculation experiments were performed to study the importance of methylotrophic metabolism for colonization of the model legume Medicago truncatula. Competition experiments with Methylobacterium extorquens wild-type strain AM1 and methylotrophy mutants revealed that the ability to u...
متن کاملFormate as the main branch point for methylotrophic metabolism in Methylobacterium extorquens AM1.
In serine cycle methylotrophs, methylene tetrahydrofolate (H4F) is the entry point of reduced one-carbon compounds into the serine cycle for carbon assimilation during methylotrophic metabolism. In these bacteria, two routes are possible for generating methylene H4F from formaldehyde during methylotrophic growth: one involving the reaction of formaldehyde with H4F to generate methylene H4F and ...
متن کاملdehydrogenase from Methylobacterium extorquens
The structure of methanol dehydrogenase (MDH) at 0.194 nm (1.94 A) has been used to provide a model structure for part of a membrane quinoprotein glucose dehydrogenase (GDH). The basic superbarrel structure is retained, along with the tryptophandocking motifs. The active-site regions are similar, but there are important differences, the most important being that GDH lacks the novel disulphide r...
متن کاملProduction of green fluorescent protein by the methylotrophic bacterium methylobacterium extorquens.
The production of green fluorescent protein (GFP) in Methylobacterium extorquens was studied by creating four different constructs using pJB3KmD, pRK310 and pVK101 vectors, as well as pLac and soluble methane monooxygenase (sMMO) promoters. Plasmids were introduced into the cells by electroporation. Expression of GFP by selected clones was evaluated by growing cells in complex or defined media....
متن کاملHeterologous extracellular production of enterocin P from Enterococcus faecium P13 in the methylotrophic bacterium Methylobacterium extorquens.
Enterocin P (EntP), a strong antilisterial pediocin-like bacteriocin from Enterococcus faecium P13, was produced by Methylobacterium extorquens. For heterologous expression of EntP in the methylotrophic bacterium M. extorquens, a recombinant plasmid was constructed. The gene encoding the EntP structural gene (entP) was cloned into the plasmid vector pCM80, under control of the methanol dehydrog...
