چکیده

Hydrogenobacter thermophilus is a thermophilic, obligately chemolithoautotrophic and aerobic hydrogen-oxidizing bacterium. It is unique in its ability to fix carbon dioxide via the reductive tricarboxylic acid cycle under aerobic conditions. It utilizes molecular hydrogen, elemental sulfur, or thiosulfate as the sole energy source. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of H. thermophilus TK-6.

Amino acid sequence of cytochrome c-552 from a thermophilic hydrogen-oxidizing bacterium, Hydrogenobacter thermophilus.

The complete amino acid sequence of cytochrome c-552 from an extremely thermophilic hydrogen bacterium, Hydrogenobacter thermophilus TK-6 (IAM 12695), was determined. It is a single polypeptide chain of 80 residues, and its molecular weight, including heme, was calculated to be 7,599. The sequence of cytochrome c-552 from H. thermophilus TK-6 closely resembles that of cytochromes c-551 from Pse...

Gene structure and expression profile of cytochrome bc nitric oxide reductase from Hydrogenobacter thermophilus TK-6.

The genes for a nitric oxide reductase-like cytochrome bc complex were cloned from a thermophilic, chemolithoautotrophic hydrogen-oxidizing bacterium, Hydrogenobacter thermophilus TK-6. The structural genes norC and norB, which encode cytochrome c and cytochrome b subunits of the complex respectively, are probably transcribed as a tricistronic operon with a following gene encoding a putative me...

Chemical structure of a novel aminophospholipid from Hydrogenobacter thermophilus strain TK-6.

The phospholipid composition of Hydrogenobacter thermophilus strain TK-6, an obligately chemolithoautotrophic, extremely thermophilic hydrogen bacterium, was analyzed. Two of four phospholipids detected from the strain were assumed to be phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylglycerol. An aminophospholipid named PX, whose content among the phospholipids was 65%, was found to have a novel chemical...

A soluble NADH-dependent fumarate reductase in the reductive tricarboxylic acid cycle of Hydrogenobacter thermophilus TK-6.

Fumarate reductase (FRD) is an enzyme that reduces fumarate to succinate. In many organisms, it is bound to the membrane and uses electron donors such as quinol. In this study, an FRD from a thermophilic chemolithoautotrophic bacterium, Hydrogenobacter thermophilus TK-6, was purified and characterized. FRD activity using NADH as an electron donor was not detected in the membrane fraction but wa...

Complete genome sequence of Hydrogenobacter thermophilus type strain (TK-6T)

Hydrogenobacter thermophilus Kawasumi et al. 1984 is the type species of the genus Hydrogenobacter. H. thermophilus was the first obligate autotrophic organism reported among aerobic hydrogen-oxidizing bacteria. Strain TK-6(T) is of interest because of the unusually efficient hydrogen-oxidizing ability of this strain, which results in a faster generation time compared to other autotrophs. It is...
