Transferable denitrification capability of Thermus thermophilus.
Laboratory-adapted strains of Thermus spp. have been shown to require oxygen for growth, including the model strains T. thermophilus HB27 and HB8. In contrast, many isolates of this species that have not been intensively grown under laboratory conditions keep the capability to grow anaerobically with one or more electron acceptors. The use of nitrogen oxides, especially nitrate, as electron acc...
متن کاملHierarchical Control of Nitrite Respiration by Transcription Factors Encoded within Mobile Gene Clusters of Thermus thermophilus
Denitrification in Thermus thermophilus is encoded by the nitrate respiration conjugative element (NCE) and nitrite and nitric oxide respiration (nic) gene clusters. A tight coordination of each cluster's expression is required to maximize anaerobic growth, and to avoid toxicity by intermediates, especially nitric oxides (NO). Here, we study the control of the nitrite reductases (Nir) and NO re...
متن کاملNitric Oxide Accumulation: The Evolutionary Trigger for Phytopathogenesis
Many publications highlight the importance of nitric oxide (NO) in plant-bacteria interactions, either in the promotion of health and plant growth or in pathogenesis. However, the role of NO in the signaling between bacteria and plants and in the fate of their interaction, as well as the reconstruction of their interactive evolution, remains largely unknown. Despite the complexity of the evolut...
متن کاملComparative structural analysis of eubacterial 5S rRNA by oxidation of adenines in the N-1 position.
Adenines in free 5S rRNA from Escherichia coli, Bacillus stearothermophilus and Thermus thermophilus have been oxidized at their N-1 position using monoperphthalic acid. The determination of the number of adenine 1-N-oxides was on the basis of UV spectroscopic data of the intact molecule. Identification of the most readily accessible nucleotides by sequencing gel analysis reveals that they are ...
متن کاملA new naturally occurring polyamine containing a quaternary ammonium nitrogen.
A new polyamine, tetrakis(3-aminopropyl)ammonium, N+ (CH2CH2CH2NH2)4, was identified in cells of an extreme thermophile, Thermus thermophilus. This compound was chemically synthesized and its chemical properties were coincident with those of the amine isolated from the thermophile.
