چکیده

An integrative shuttle vector, pZMOCP1, was constructed by ligating EcoRV digests of the plasmid cloning vector pBluescript and pZMP1, a cryptic plasmid of Zymomonas mobilis PROIMI A1. The 7.2-kb plasmid pZMOCP1 replicated in Escherichia coli and could also be transferred from this host by electroporation to Z. mobilis ATCC 29191. The transformants were selected by ampicillin resistance. The integrative characteristic was detected by hybridization in situ. The vector was stably maintained in Z. mobilis after 200 generations without selective pressure.

Differential Expression of Zymomonas mobilis Sucrase Genes (sacB and sacC) in Escherichia coli and Sucrase Mutants of Zymomonas mobilis

The sacB and sacC genes encoding levansucrase and extracellular sucrase respectively were independently subcloned in pBluescript (high copy number) and in Z. mobilis-E. coli shuttle vector, pZA22 (low copy number). The expression of these genes were compared under identical background of E. coli and Z. mobilis host. The level of sacB gene expression in E. coli was almost ten fold less than the ...

Evaluation of Ethanol Production from Tannin-Reduced Carob Pod Extracts by Zymamonas Mobilis

Regarding some reported antimicrobial properties of tannins; Zymomonas mobilis was used to obtain ethanol from tannin-reduced carob pod extract (TR-CPE). Culture of 50 mL volume containing 7.5 g sugar at pH 5.5 and 0.03 g bacterial inoculums with shaking at 80 rpm was used. Using response surface methodology (RSM), the maximum ethanol concentration of 5.34 % w/v (higher than that reported earli...

Secretive expression of heterologous β-glucosidase in Zymomonas mobilis

Background: Zymomonas mobilis is an efficient ethanol fermentation strain, but its narrow substrate range limits its fermentation in lignocellulose hydrolysate. As a potential consolidated bioprocessing (CBP) stain for bioethanol production, the ability of cellulose utilization was necessary. In this study, extracellular expression of β-glucosidase on Z. mobilis was studied as the first step fo...

Complete genome sequence of the ethanol-producing Zymomonas mobilis subsp. mobilis centrotype ATCC 29191.

Zymomonas mobilis is an ethanologenic bacterium that has been studied for use in biofuel production. Of the sequenced Zymomonas strains, ATCC 29191 has been described as the phenotypic centrotype of Zymomonas mobilis subsp. mobilis, the taxon that harbors the highest ethanol-producing Z. mobilis strains. ATCC 29191 was isolated in Kinshasa, Congo, from palm wine fermentations. This strain is re...

Engineered Zymomonas mobilis for salt tolerance using EZ-Tn5-based transposon insertion mutagenesis system

BACKGROUND The cell growth and ethanol yield of Zymomonas mobilis may be detrimentally affected by salt stress frequently present in some biomass-based fermentation systems, leading to a decrease in the rate of sugar conversion to ethanol or other bioproducts. To address this problem, improving the salt tolerance of Z. mobilis is a desirable way. However, limited progress has been made in devel...
