Isolation of an ectoine-producing Sinobaca sp. and identification of genes that are involved in ectoine biosynthesis

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 2022
Abstract A moderate halophilic bacterium that could accumulate ectoine and hydroxyectoine was isolated from soil near a salt mine and was identified as a Sinobaca sp. (designed strain H24) according to 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. The bacterium grew well in the presence of 1–2 M NaCl, while growth in a medium that contained 2 M NaCl ...

Ultra‐Low‐Cost Hydrophobic Organic Coating for Highly Reversible Zinc Anodes

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 11, 9 March 2026.
A nanoscale hydrophobic 1,3‐Di(o‐tolyl)thiourea (DTH) layer (<14 nm) was deposited on zinc anodes for durable aqueous Zn‐ion batteries, costing merely 1.43×10−7 USD·Ah−1. By suppressing side reactions and dendrites, it achieved 2500‐cycle coin cells and a 143 Wh·kg−1 pouch cell (1200 cycles) with a record‐low additive cost (7.02×10−7 USD).

Combined influence of ectoine and salt: spectroscopic and numerical evidence for compensating effects on aqueous solutions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Ectoine is an important osmolyte, which allows microorganisms to survive in extreme environmental salinity. The hygroscopic effects of ectoine in pure water can be explained by a strong water binding behavior whereas a study on the effects of ectoine in ...

Metabolic modeling and analysis of the metabolic switch in Streptomyces coelicolor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background The transition from exponential to stationary phase in Streptomyces coelicolor is accompanied by a major metabolic switch and results in a strong activation of secondary metabolism.

Ectoine Globally Hypomethylates DNA in Skin Cells and Suppresses Cancer Proliferation

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2023
Epigenetic modifications, mainly aberrant DNA methylation, have been shown to silence the expression of genes involved in epigenetic diseases, including cancer suppression genes.

Implications for the Binding of the Protein G5P to DNA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Microorganisms accumulate molar concentrations of compatible solutes like ectoine to prevent proteins from denaturation. Direct structural or spectroscopic information on the mechanism and about the hydration shell around ectoine are scarce.

An Updated genome annotation for the model marine bacterium Ruegeria pomeroyi DSS-3 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
When the genome of Ruegeria pomeroyi DSS-3 was published in 2004, it represented the first sequence from a heterotrophic marine bacterium. Over the last ten years, the strain has become a valuable model for understanding the cycling of sulfur and carbon ...

Properties of compatible solutes in aqueous solution

open access: yes, 2011
We have performed Molecular Dynamics simulations of ectoine, hydroxyectoine and urea in explicit solvent. Special attention has been spent on the local surrounding structure of water molecules.
