چکیده
Agrobacterium sp. ATCC 31749 is an industrial strain for the commercial production of curdlan, an important exopolysaccharide with food and medical applications. Here we report the genome sequence of the curdlan-producing strain ATCC 31749. Genome sequencing is the first step toward the understanding of regulation of curdlan biosynthesis.

Transcriptome profiling of a curdlan-producing Agrobacterium reveals conserved regulatory mechanisms of exopolysaccharide biosynthesis
BACKGROUND The ability to synthesize exopolysaccharides (EPS) is widespread among microorganisms, and microbial EPS play important roles in biofilm formation, pathogen persistence, and applications in the food and medical industries. Although it is well established that EPS synthesis is invariably in response to environmental cues, it remains largely unknown how various environmental signals tr...

BACKGROUND This work evaluated the improvement of curdlan production of Agrobacterium sp. ATCC 31749 by using culture medium containing juice of discarded bottom part of green Asparagus spear (MJDA). Curdlan production was carried out using Agrobacterium sp. ATCC 31749 in flasks with different volumes of MJDA and its non-juice-adding control (CK) incubated in shaker at 30 °C, 200 rpm rotation f...
متن کاملEnhanced Curdlan Production in Agrobacterium sp. ATCC 31749 by Addition of Low-polyphosphates
A large amount of adenosine triphosphate is required in curdlan biosynthesis by Agrobacterium sp. ATCC 31749 for uridine triphosphate regeneration. Three low-polyphosphates (Na4P2O7, Na5P3O10 and (NaPO3)6) with high energy phosphate bond were employed in the present work to substitute for KH2PO4-K2HPO4 in medium for curdlan production. The curdlan yield was enhanced by 23% and 134% when one fol...

BACKGROUND Oligosaccharides containing a terminal Gal-alpha1,3-Gal moiety are collectively known as alpha-Gal epitopes. alpha-Gal epitopes are integral components of several medical treatments under development, including flu and HIV vaccines as well as cancer treatments. The difficulty associated with synthesizing the alpha-Gal epitope hinders the development and application of these treatment...
