OBJECTIVE To study the sterilizing effect and mechanism of electrolyzed-oxidizing water (EOW) and electrolyzed-reductive water (ERW) for Bacillus subtilis var. niger (ATCC9372) and Escherichia coli (8099). METHODS The generations of EOW and ERW were made in the ion membrane electrolysis cell. The sterilization manner was the suspension quantitative germicidal test. RESULTS The killing rate ...

I. Cordycepin monophosphate has been shown to inhibit the activity of phosphoribosyl-pyrophosphate amidotransferase (ribosylamine-5-phosphate:pyrophosphate phosphoribosyltransferase (ghitamate-amidating), EC 2.4.2.14) obtained from both pigeon liver and Bacillus subtilis. 2. Evidence is presented for the existence of a phosphorylated derivative of cordycepin in Bacillus subtilis cells which wer...

results the pcr approved the bacillus genus of the isolates. the strain of bacillus subtilis was identified using biochemical tests. 40 ºc and ph 11 are the optimum condition for maximum keratinase enzyme activity. objectives the aim of this study was the isolation of feather degrading bacillus spp.from a poultry waste and the optimization of conditions for the highest enzyme activity and feath...

The Bacillus subtilis sigI gene, which is a member of the class VI heat shock genes of the B. subtilis heat shock stimulon, encodes an alternative sigma factor whose regulon is poorly defined. In this study, by using a binary vector system, we showed that B. subtilis SigI could drive expression of a transcriptional fusion between the sigI regulatory region from Bacillus licheniformis, Bacillus ...

Bacillus subtilis SC-8 is a Gram-positive bacterium displaying narrow antagonistic activity for the Bacillus cereus group. B. subtilis SC-8 was isolated from Korean traditional fermented-soybean food. Here we report the draft genome sequence of B. subtilis SC-8, including biosynthetic genes for antibiotics that may have beneficial effects for control of food-borne pathogens.

Bacillus subtilis 3NA reaches high cell densities during fed-batch fermentation and is an interesting target for further optimization as a production strain. Here, we announce the full genome of B. subtilis 3NA. The presence of specific Bacillus subtilis 168 and W23 genetic features suggests that 3NA is a hybrid of these strains.

Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6051a (=KCTC 1028), which is less domesticated than strain 168, is widely used for the secretory expression of industrial enzymes. Herein, we present the complete genome sequence of the Bacillus subtilis strain ATCC 6051a.

the goal of this research was to isolate and identify the thermostable alkaline protease producing bacteria among several native iranian microorganisms. at the end of screening program, a bacillus subtilis bp-36 strain producing thermophilic alkaline protease was isolated from a hot spring in ardebil province. the target enzyme was purified using a one-step aqueous two-phase systems (atps) prot...

conclusions b. subtilis entrapped in beads was able to preserve its viability and produce biosurfactants as secondary metabolites. therefore, this method could be applied as a continuous culture system of biosurfactant production. methods alginate and bacterial solutions were mixed by stirring to obtain a uniform mixture and added by drops into cacl2 solution to form spherical beads. the spheri...

Azoreductases have been characterized as enzymes that can decolorize azo dyes by reducing azo groups. In this study, genes encoding proteins having homology with the azoreductase gene of Bacillus sp. OY1-2 were obtained from Bacillus subtilis ATCC6633, B. subtilis ISW1214, and Geobacillus stearotherophilus IFO13737 by polymerase chain reaction. All three genes encoded proteins with 174 amino ac...
