A Functional Analysis of the Purine Salvage Pathway in Acetobacter fabarum
Acetobacter are commonly found in the gut microbiota of fruit flies, including Drosophila melanogaster. We evaluated the function of purine salvage genes in Acetobacter fabarum to test the hypothesis that this bacterium can utilize host metabolites as a ...

A New Type of Acetobacter: Acetobacter acidophilum prov. sp. [PDF]
SUMMARY: A new type of Aeetobacter, provisionally named Acetobacter acidophilum, has been isolated in pure culture from an experimental vinegar generator originally inoculated with active industrial beechwood shavings. In contrast to other bacteria, this organism needs an acidic medium for growth and has a very specific oxidizing capacity.

Acetobacter Biofilm: Electronic Characterization and Reactive Transduction of Pressure
The bacterial skin studied here is a several centimeter-wide colony of Acetobacter aceti living on a cellulose-based hydrogel. We demonstrate that the colony exhibits trains of spikes of extracellular electrical potential, with amplitudes of the spikes ...
