Engineering Bacillus megaterium for production of functional intracellular materials [PDF]
Background: Over the last 10-15 years, a technology has been developed to engineer bacterial polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) inclusions as functionalized beads, for applications such as vaccines, diagnostics and enzyme immobilization. This has been achieved by

Transposition of Tn917 in Bacillus megaterium [PDF]
Transposon Tn917, carried on plasmid pTV1, was introduced into Bacillus megaterium and transposed efficiently and apparently randomly. Insertional mutations included at least eight different auxotrophic loci, two carbon source loci, and sporulation loci. One trp::Tn917 mutation was further verified as an insertion by both reversion and transduction.

Growth inhibition of Beauveria bassiana by bacteria isolated from the cuticular surface of the corn leafhopper, Dalbulus maidis and the planthopper, Delphacodes kuscheli, two important vectors of maize pathogens [PDF]
The phytosanitary importance of the corn leafhopper, Dalbulus maidis (De Long and Wolcott) (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) and the planthopper, Delphacodes kuscheli Fennah (Hemiptera: Delphacidae) lies in their ability to transmit phloem-associated plant ...

Polysaccharide Capsule of Bacillus megaterium.
SummaryCertain strains of B. megaterium produce capsules consisting of polysaccharide and lacking polypeptide if cultured in a synthetic medium containing glucose and nitrate as sole sources of carbon and nitrogen. The capsules give a specific capsular reaction with the same homologous antibody as that which reacts with the cell wall.

Ribosomal precursor particles of Bacillus megaterium [PDF]
Pulse-labeled cells of Bacillus megaterium were converted to protoplasts, and lysates of the protoplasts were analyzed by sucrose gradient sedimentation. Precursor ribonucleoprotein (RNP) particles then appeared predominantly as 50S and 30S precursor ribosomal subunits.

Cyanide Metabolism by Bacillus megaterium
Cyanide disappears from a medium supporting actively growing cells of Bacillus megaterium, a bacterium isolated from a cyanide enrichment medium containing Fargo clay soil. Whole cells of this organism convert K14CN to asparagine-14C, aspartic acid-14C and 14CO2.
