Carbon monoxide cycling by Desulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough.
Sulfate-reducing bacteria, like Desulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough, use the reduction of sulfate as a sink for electrons liberated in oxidation reactions of organic substrates. The rate of the latter exceeds that of sulfate reduction at the onset of growth, causing a temporary accumulation of hydrogen and other fermentation products (the hydrogen or fermentation burst). In addition to hydroge...
متن کاملA rubrerythrin operon and nigerythrin gene in Desulfovibrio vulgaris (Hildenborough).
Rubrerythrin is a nonheme iron protein of unknown function isolated from Desulfovibrio vulgaris (Hildenborough). We have sequenced a 3.3-kbp Sal1 fragment of D. vulgaris chromosomal DNA containing the rubrerythrin gene, rbr, identified additional open reading frames (ORFs) adjacent to rbr, and shown that these ORFs are part of a transcriptional unit containing rbr. One ORF, designated fur, lies...
متن کاملCharacterization of the [NiFe] hydrogenase from the sulfate reducer Desulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough.
The [NiFe] hydrogenase from Desulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough was isolated from the cytoplasmic membranes and characterized by EPR spectroscopy. It has a total molecular mass of 98.7 kDa (subunits of 66.4 and 32.3 kDa), and contains 1 nickel and 12 Fe atoms per heterodimer. The catalytic activities for hydrogen consumption and production were determined to be 174 and 89 mumol H2.min-1.mg-1, ...
متن کاملExploring the role of CheA3 in Desulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough motility
Sulfate-reducing bacteria such as Desulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough are often found in environments with limiting growth nutrients. Using lactate as the electron donor and carbon source, and sulfate as the electron acceptor, wild type D. vulgaris shows motility on soft agar plates. We evaluated this phenotype with mutants resulting from insertional inactivation of genes potentially related t...
متن کاملGlobal analysis of heat shock response in Desulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough.
Desulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough belongs to a class of sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) and is found ubiquitously in nature. Given the importance of SRB-mediated reduction for bioremediation of metal ion contaminants, ongoing research on D. vulgaris has been in the direction of elucidating regulatory mechanisms for this organism under a variety of stress conditions. This work presents a glob...
