Expanding on the ability of trivalent actinides to support microbial alcohol metabolism in evolved methylotrophic bacterium [PDF]

Communications Chemistry
The 4 f elements, known as the lanthanides, have only recently been recognized as biologically essential metals. These elements can be found in the active site of certain alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) enzymes, which are used by methylotrophic bacteria to ...

High-throughput identification and screening of novel Methylobacterium species using whole-cell MALDI-TOF/MS analysis. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Methylobacterium species are ubiquitous α-proteobacteria that reside in the phyllosphere and are fed by methanol that is emitted from plants. In this study, we applied whole-cell matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass ...

Experimental Horizontal Gene Transfer of Methylamine Dehydrogenase Mimics Prevalent Exchange in Nature and Overcomes the Methylamine Growth Constraints Posed by the Sub-Optimal N-Methylglutamate Pathway

Microorganisms, 2015
Methylamine plays an important role in the global carbon and nitrogen budget; microorganisms that grow on reduced single carbon compounds, methylotrophs, serve as a major biological sink for methylamine in aerobic environments.

Cloning and Characterization of Polyhydroxybutyrate Synthase from Methylobacterium extorquens AM1 [PDF]

Журнал Сибирского федерального университета: Серия Биология, 2016
Multiple genes encoding putative PHB synthases (up to 5 in single strain) were found in Methylobacterium genomes. As a result of phylogenetic analysis proteins PhaC1, PhaC2, PhaC3 were identified as class I PHB synthases, PhaC4 proteins were identified ...

Estimates of RelSeq, Mesh1, and SAHMex Hydrolysis of (p)ppGpp and (p)ppApp by Thin Layer Chromatography and NADP/NADH Coupled Assays

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
The Mesh1 class of hydrolases found in bacteria, metazoans and humans was discovered as able to cleave an intact pyrophosphate residue esterified on the 3′hydroxyl of (p)ppGpp in a Mn2+ dependent reaction.

A transdisciplinary approach to the initial validation of a single cell protein as an alternative protein source for use in aquafeeds [PDF]

PeerJ, 2017
The human population is growing and, globally, we must meet the challenge of increased protein needs required to feed this population. Single cell proteins (SCP), when coupled to aquaculture production, offer a means to ensure future protein needs can be
