Deoxyribonucleic Acid Hybrids of Acetic Acid Bacteria.

De Ley, J. (State University, Ghent, Belgium), and S. Friedman. Deoxyribonucleic acid hybrids of acetic acid bacteria. J. Bacteriol. 88:937-945. 1964.-Deuterated N(15)-labeled deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) from Acetobacter aceti (mesoxydans 4) forms hybrids with ordinary DNA from other species of this genus (A. xylinum, A. pasteurianus, A. estunensis, and possibly A. xylinoides) when the guanine ...

Nutritional Requirements in Multiple Auxotrophic Lactic Acid Bacteria : Geneti ¢ Lesions

In a study of genetic lesions respo"sible for amino acid requirements in multiple auxotrophic lactic aeid bacteria, a systematic attempt was made to isolate mutants that could synthesize each of the amino acids required by the parental strains of Lactocoecus lactis, Enterocoecus flaecium, and Pediococcus acidilactiei. After treatment with appropriate mutagens or, in some cases, spontaneously, s...

Abstract-- Lactic acid bacteria are characterized by numerous nutritional requirements

Lactic acid bacteria are characterized by numerous nutritional requirements. The influence of amino acids and peptides on the growth of Pediococcus pentosaceus c1 isolated from argentinean wines was determined. Cells were growth in synthetic media and in the same media added with the following dipeptides: leucine-leucine; leucine-proline; methionine-proline and glycineglycine. In the complete m...

Utilization of ethanol by acetic acid bacteria.

It is well known that the acetic acid bacteria can rapidly oxidize ethanol to acetic acid. But whether ethanol can serve as a source of carbon and energy for these bacteria has not been clearly established. Pasteur (1868) noted that Mycoderma aceti which is undoubtedly Acetobacter aceti (Frateur, 1950) can grow well in ethanol media only if acetic acid is also present. Addition of one or two pe...
