Actinoplanes Swims into the Molecular Age [PDF]
ABSTRACT The survival strategy of Actinoplanes is fascinating from an evolutionary perspective, combining a short motile phase in an otherwise nonmotile, filamentous life cycle and the somewhat paradoxical concept of spores—normally thought of as a resting stage—that swim ...

Characterization of Actinoplanes missouriensis Spore Flagella [PDF]
ABSTRACT Actinoplanes missouriensis spores swim with a tuft of flagella. Flagella of newborn spores are wrapped with a membranous sheath. When the sheath is unwrapped, spores start swimming. Flagellar length is kept short, at around 1.9 μm, which covers half the circumference of the spore.

A unique sigma/anti-sigma system in the actinomycete Actinoplanes missouriensis
Bacteria of the genus Actinoplanes form sporangia that contain dormant sporangiospores which, upon contact with water, release motile spores (zoospores) through a process called sporangium dehiscence.

Thioredoxin and its partner protein are essential for zoospore flagellar formation in Actinoplanes missouriensis [PDF]
The filamentous bacterium Actinoplanes missouriensis produces flagellated spores, which become zoospores after release, in sporangia. However, the regulatory mechanism of spore flagellation remains unclear.

Improving fidaxomicin production through ARTP mutagenesis and fermentation optimization in Actinoplanes deccanensis [PDF]
Fidaxomicin, a macrolide antibiotic, is widely used to treat Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI). It demonstrats significantly higher clinical efficacy than vancomycin and metronidazole. However, the large-scale industrial production of it remains a

Actinoplanes siamensis sp. nov., isolated from soil
A Gram-positive filamentous bacterial strain that developed large campanulate sporangia at the ends of sporangiophores on substrate mycelium was isolated from bamboo forest soil in Thailand. According to the results of a polyphasic taxonomic study, our isolate had typical characteristics of members of the genusActinoplanes.

From pollution to reforestation: the hidden microbiome of Alnus glutinosa nodules over 30 years [PDF]
Actinorhizal plants, such as Alnus glutinosa, play a critical role in ecosystem restoration, particularly in metal-contaminated soils, yet their nodule microbiome remains largely unexplored beyond Frankiaceae endosymbionts.
