Complete Genome Sequences of Two Acetylene-Fermenting Pelobacter acetylenicus Strains
Acetylene fermentation is a rare metabolism that was serendipitously discovered during C2H2-block assays of N2O reductase. Here, we report the genome sequences of two type strains of acetylene-fermenting Pelobacter acetylenicus, the freshwater bacterium DSM 3246 and the estuarine bacterium DSM 3247.
متن کاملAcetylene degradation by new isolates of aerobic bacteria and comparison of acetylene hydratase enzymes.
Aerobic acetylene-degrading bacteria were isolated from soil samples. Two isolates were assigned to the species Rhodococcus opacus, two others to Rhodococcus ruber and Gordona sp. They were compared with known strains of aerobic acetylene-, cyanide-, or nitrile-utilizing bacteria. The acetylene hydratases of R opacus could be measured in cell-free extracts only in the presence of a strong reduc...
متن کاملPurification and characterization of acetylene hydratase of Pelobacter acetylenicus, a tungsten iron-sulfur protein.
Acetylene hydratase of the mesophilic fermenting bacterium Pelobacter acetylenicus catalyzes the hydration of acetylene to acetaldehyde. Growth of P. acetylenicus with acetylene and specific acetylene hydratase activity depended on tungstate or, to a lower degree, molybdate supply in the medium. The specific enzyme activity in cell extract was highest after growth in the presence of tungstate. ...
متن کاملCrystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of the tungsten-dependent acetylene hydratase from Pelobacter acetylenicus.
Acetylene hydratase is a tungsten-containing hydroxylase that converts acetylene to acetaldehyde in a unique reaction that requires a strong reductant. The subsequent disproportionation of acetaldehyde yields acetate and ethanol. Crystals of the tungsten/iron-sulfur protein acetylene hydratase from Pelobacter acetylenicus strain WoAcy 1 (DSM 3246) were grown by the vapour-diffusion method in an...
متن کاملFermentative degradation of polyethylene glycol by a strictly anaerobic, gram-negative, nonsporeforming bacterium, Pelobacter venetianus sp. nov.
The synthetic polyether polyethylene glycol (PEG) with a molecular weight of 20,000 was anaerobically degraded in enrichment cultures inoculated with mud of limnic and marine origins. Three strains (Gra PEG 1, Gra PEG 2, and Ko PEG 2) of rod-shaped, gram-negative, nonsporeforming, strictly anaerobic bacteria were isolated in mineral medium with PEG as the sole source of carbon and energy. All s...
