Exploring Ectoine Production From Methanol, Formate, and Electrochemically Produced Formate by Methyloligella halotolerans

Engineering in Life Sciences, Volume 26, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Microbial synthesis using renewable C1‐carbon sources like electrochemically produced formate (e‐formate) represents a promising approach for climate‐neutral chemical production. This study investigates formate utilization for ectoine biosynthesis by the halophilic methylotroph Methyloligella halotolerans.

Cloning and Characterization of Polyhydroxybutirate Synthase from Methylobacterium extorquens AM1

Journal of Siberian Federal University. Biology, 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 as class III PHB synthases, while PhaC5 apparently belongs to uncharacterized class of PHB synthases.

Metabolite profiling uncovers plasmid-induced cobalt limitation under methylotrophic growth conditions. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2009
BACKGROUND:The introduction and maintenance of plasmids in cells is often associated with a reduction of growth rate. The reason for this growth reduction is unclear in many cases. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS:We observed a surprisingly large reduction

tRNA signatures reveal polyphyletic origins of streamlined SAR11 genomes among the alphaproteobacteria [PDF]

, 2013
Phylogenomic analyses are subject to bias from compositional convergence and noise from horizontal gene transfer (HGT). Compositional convergence is a likely cause of controversy regarding phylogeny of the SAR11 group of Alphaproteobacteria that have ...

Broad-Host-Range cre-lox System for Antibiotic Marker Recycling in Gram-Negative Bacteria

BioTechniques, 2002
Complete genome sequences are now available for many bacterial species that lack sophisticated genetic tools. We describe the development of a broad-host-range crelox system that allows antibiotic marker recycling in a variety of Gram-negative bacteria ...

A Comprehensive Study of Biohopanoid Production in Alphaproteobacteria: Biosynthetic, Chemotaxonomical, and Geobiological Implications

Geobiology, Volume 23, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
ABSTRACT Bacteriohopanepolyol derivatives (BHPDs) and dia‐ and catagenetic products formed from these bacterial membrane modifiers are extensively used as biomarkers in molecular ecological and geoscience studies. Some BHPDs can be assigned to specific phylogenetic bacterial groups. With the vastly increasing availability of complete bacterial genomes,
