Composition of the Sheath of Sphaerotilus Natans.
Romano, Antonio H. (University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, Ohio) and Joyce P. Peloquin. Composition of the sheath of Sphaerotilus natans. J. Bacteriol. 86:252-258. 1963.-The sheath of Sphaerotilus natans was isolated and subjected to chemical analysis. Isolation of the sheaths was accomplished by incubating cells in the presence of lysozyme and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid in tris(hydroxymeth...
متن کاملPurification and properties of an enzyme capable of degrading the sheath of Sphaerotilus natans.
Microorganisms which can degrade and grow on the purified sheath of a sheathed bacterium Sphaerotilus natans were collected from soil and river water. Two bacterial strains were isolated from the soil and designated strains TB and TK. Both strains are rod shaped, negatively stained by gram staining, facultatively anaerobic, and formed ellipsoidal endospores. These characteristics suggested that...
متن کاملA spatial relationship between sheath elongation and cell proliferation in Sphaerotilus natans.
Sphaerotilus natans is a filamentous sheath-forming bacterium. A method of selective fluorescent-labeling of its sheath using conventional reagents was developed. Terminal expansion of the sheath was confirmed by this method. In addition, ubiquitous cell growth was revealed by sequential phase-contrast microscopy of a filament. Based on this and earlier reports, a model of the sheath formation ...
متن کاملIntracellular deposition of sulfur by Sphaerotilus natans.
During the course of studies of the bacterial and algal flora of creek waters we were puzzled by the absence of any representatives of the genus Thiothrix from samples in which there was a regular and abundant growth of Beggiatoa species. Associated with Beggiatoa in many of these samples was the colorless sheathed organism Sphaerotilus natans. In view of the very gross similarity of Sphaerotil...
متن کاملComposition of an extracellular poly-saccharide produced by Sphaerotilus natans.
The capsular polysaccharide of Sphaerotilus natans has been isolated, purified, and analyzed. Chromatographic and chemical analyses performed on acid hydrolyzates of the purified material have shown that the major components are fucose, galactose, glucose, and glucuronic acid in approximately equimolar amounts. Glucose and glucuronic acid are believed to occur as an aldobiuronic acid unit.
