Transaldolase in Bacillus methanolicus: biochemical characterization and biological role in ribulose monophosphate cycle [PDF]
Background The Gram-positive facultative methylotrophic bacterium Bacillus methanolicus uses the sedoheptulose-1,7-bisphosphatase (SBPase) variant of the ribulose monophosphate (RuMP) cycle for growth on the C1 carbon source methanol.

Characterization of D-Arabitol as Newly Discovered Carbon Source of Bacillus methanolicus [PDF]
Bacillus methanolicus is a Gram-positive, thermophilic, methanol-utilizing bacterium. As a facultative methylotroph, B. methanolicus is also known to utilize D-mannitol, D-glucose and, as recently discovered, sugar alcohol D-arabitol.

Genomic and Transcriptomic Investigation of the Physiological Response of the Methylotroph Bacillus methanolicus to 5-Aminovalerate [PDF]
The methylotrophic thermophile Bacillus methanolicus can utilize the non-food substrate methanol as its sole carbon and energy source. Metabolism of L-lysine, in particular its biosynthesis, has been studied to some detail, and methanol-based L-lysine ...
