Bacteremia caused by Desulfovibrio fairfieldensis

Journal of Infection and Chemotherapy, 2008
Desulfovibrio species are anaerobic gram-negative, pleomorphic bacilli rarely causing infection in humans. In the present report, we describe a case of bacteremia caused by Desulfovibrio fairfieldensis. The patient, for whom biapenem was administered, rapidly improved without any sequelae.

Malate dismutation by Desulfovibrio

Archiv f�r Mikrobiologie, 1970
1. Nine strains of Desulfovibrio, representing 4 species, grew by dismutation of malate in “sulphate-free” medium; succinate, fumarate and acetate were end-products of growth. 2. Two strains of D. vulgaris could only grow in malate medium in presence of sulphate as terminal electron acceptor. 3.

Ethanol dissimilation in Desulfovibrio

Archives of Microbiology, 1988
During growth of ethanol plus sulfate Desulfovibrio gigas and three other Desulfovibrio strains tested contained high NAD-dependent alcohol dehydrogenase activities and dye-linked aldehyde dehydrogenase activities. In lactate-grown cells these activities were lower or absent. In D.

Aerotaxis in Desulfovibrio

Environmental Microbiology, 1999
Aerotaxis of two sulphate‐reducing bacteria, the freshwater strain Desulfovibrio desulfuricans CSN (DSM 9104) and the marine strain Desulfovibrio oxyclinae N13 (DSM 11498), was studied using capillary microslides, microscopy and oxygen microsensors. The

Toxic effects of dissolved heavy metals on Desulfovibrio vulgaris and Desulfovibrio sp. strains

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2006
Biological treatment of metal-containing wastewaters with sulphate-reducing bacteria (SRB) is an attractive technique for the bioremediation of this kind of medium. In order to design a suitable engineering process to address this environmental problem, it is crucial to understand the inhibitory effect of dissolved heavy metals on these bacteria. Batch

Characterization of Recombinant Desulfovibrio gigas Ferredoxin

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2001
Dg ferredoxin gene was cloned using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), inserted into vector pT7-7, and overexpressed in Escherichia coli (E. coli) grown in aerobic media. The recombinant protein is a dimer and contains a [3Fe-4S] cluster per monomer. EPR and (1)H NMR data of recombinant and wild-type protein are compared.

A re-examination of Desulfovibrio africanus

Archiv f�r Mikrobiologie, 1971
Contrary to previous descriptions of its properties (Campbell et al., 1966; Postgate and Campbell, 1966) Desulfovibrio africanus was found to be bipolarly flagellate, frequently semi-annular in shape and to contain, in addition to a reported soluble c-type cytochrome, particulate oxido-reducible pigments indicative of b-, c-and d-type cytochromes.

Membrane protein complex of APS reductase and Qmo is present in Desulfovibrio vulgaris and Desulfovibrio alaskensis

Microbiology, 2013
Due to their adjacent location in the genomes of Desulfovibrio species and their potential for formation of an electron transfer pathway in sulfate-reducing prokaryotes, adenosyl phosphosulfate (APS) reductase (Apr) and quinone-interacting membrane-bound oxidoreductase (Qmo) have been thought to interact together during the reduction of APS.

Glycerol and dihydroxyacetone dissimilation in Desulfovibrio strains

Archives of Microbiology, 1987
During growth on glycerol two marine Desulfovibrio strains that can grow on an unusually broad range of substrates contained high activities of glycerol kinase, NAD(P)-independent glycerol 3-phosphate dehydrogenase and the other enzymes necessary for the conversion of dihydroxyacetone phosphate to pyruvate.
