چکیده

Antisera were prepared against cytochromes c3 from Desulfovibrio africanus, D. vulgaris, and D. salexigens. Cross-reactions were observed between antisera to D. vulgaris and D. africanus cytochromes and heterologous cytochromes c3. A weak cross-reaction with antisera against both D. vulgaris and D. africanus cytochromes and the acid form of the D. salexigens cytochrome was seen; the basic form did not react.

Draft Genome Sequence for Desulfovibrio africanus Strain PCS

Desulfovibrio africanus strain PCS is an anaerobic sulfate-reducing bacterium (SRB) isolated from sediment from Paleta Creek, San Diego, CA. Strain PCS is capable of reducing metals such as Fe(III) and Cr(VI), has a cell cycle, and is predicted to produce methylmercury. We present the D. africanus PCS genome sequence.

Oxygen-dependent growth of the obligate anaerobe Desulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough.

Desulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough, a sulfate-reducing bacterium classified as an obligate anaerobe, swam to a preferred oxygen concentration of 0.02 to 0.04% (0.24 to 0.48 microM), a level which also supported growth. Oxygen concentrations of 0.08% and higher arrested growth. We propose that in zones of transition from an oxic to an anoxic environment, D. vulgaris protects anoxic microenviro...

Isolation of Desulfomicrobium orale sp. nov. and Desulfovibrio strain NY682, oral sulfate-reducing bacteria involved in human periodontal disease.

The species of sulfate-reducing bacteria that prevail in sites affected by periodontal disease may be different from those commonly occurring in the digestive tracts of healthy individuals. Ten strains of mesophilic sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) were isolated from subgingival plaque in periodontal lesions of ten patients with periodontitis. Characterization on the basis of morphological, phys...

Desulfovibrio aminophilus sp. nov., a novel amino acid degrading and sulfate reducing bacterium from an anaerobic dairy wastewater lagoon.

A mesophilic strain of sulfate-reducing bacterium, designated ALA-3T (T = type strain), was isolated from an anaerobic lagoon of a dairy wastewater treatment plant. The curved, Gram-negative, non-sporeforming cells (0.2 x 3.0-4.0 microns) existed singly or in chains, and were motile by single polar flagella. Optimum growth occurred at 35 degrees C and pH 7.5 on a medium containing lactate and s...
