-Hydantoinase activity of an Ochrobactrum anthropi strain
نویسندگان
چکیده
Aims: A microorganism with the ability to release methionine from D,L-(2-methylthioethyl) hydantoin (strain 245) was isolated from soil. The aim of this study was the identification of the strain and the adjustment of the conditions of growth and of the enzymatic reaction, in order to achieve high specific activities of bioconversion of the hydantoin. Methods and Results: Strain 245 was identified as Ochrobactrum anthropi. The strain grew at alkaline pH (up to 10Æ0) and its hydantoinase activity was found to be inducible by the substrate

Draft Genome Sequence of Ochrobactrum anthropi Strain W13P3, a Halotolerant Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon-Degrading Bacterium
Ochrobactrum anthropi W13P3 was isolated from saline soil contaminated by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and could degrade PAHs with 5% NaCl. We report the 5.3-Mb draft genome sequence of this strain, which is helpful for understanding the diversity of Ochrobactrum spp. and the mechanism of PAH degradation in saline environments.

The members of the genus Brucella are gram-negative, facultatively intracellular bacterial pathogens that cause brucellosis in many animal species and humans. Although live, attenuated vaccines are available to protect several animal species from the disease, there is no safe and effective vaccine for human use. Here we report that a bacterium that is closely related to Brucella species, Ochrob...
