Conjugative botulinum neurotoxin-encoding plasmids in Clostridium botulinum. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2010
Clostridium botulinum produces seven distinct serotypes of botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs). The genes encoding different subtype neurotoxins of serotypes A, B, F and several dual neurotoxin-producing strains have been shown to reside on plasmids ...

Type E Botulinum Neurotoxin-Producing Clostridium butyricum Strains Are Aerotolerant during Vegetative Growth

mSystems, 2019
Clostridium butyricum, the type species of the genus Clostridium, is considered an obligate anaerobe, yet it has been shown to grow in the presence of oxygen. C. butyricum strains atypically producing the botulinum neurotoxin type E are the leading cause

Plasmids in Clostridium botulinum and related Clostridium species [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1984
Toxigenic Clostridium botulinum and nontoxigenic C. sporogenes, C. subterminale, and C. botulinum-like organisms from a variety of sources were screened for plasmids. Of the 68 toxigenic C. botulinum isolates, 56% carried one or more plasmids, ranging in mass from 2.1 to 81 megadaltons. Within individual groups (based on the type of neurotoxin produced)

Thermostable Bacterial Esterases From Lipase Family 1.5 Degrade Compostable Polyesters PBAT and PBSA

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 14, Issue 6, December 2025.
This study highlights that there is a broader diversity of enzymes with polyester depolymerase activity to be discovered from nature, beyond the well‐known PETases. We demonstrate that uncharacterized bacterial lipases possess polyesterase activity and thermostability, offering promising candidates for industrial plastic recycling without extensive ...

Molecular Cloning and Functional Analysis of Holin and Endolysin From Escherichia Phage UE‐M6 as Potential Antibacterial Agents

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 14, Issue 6, December 2025.
We isolated phage UE‐M6 from wastewater and subsequently cloned, expressed, and purified its encoded endolysin (UE‐lysin) and holin (UE‐holin). Our results demonstrate that the combined application of UE‐lysin and UE‐holin exhibits significantly greater antibacterial activity than either protein alone, indicating a synergistic interaction between the ...
