Microbial Polythioesters

Macromolecular Bioscience, 2004
AbstractSummary: This feature article describes the current knowledge on biosynthesis of polythioesters (PTEs), which are exclusively accumulated by microorganisms capable to synthesize the well‐known polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs). Two bacterial PTE biosynthesis systems are discussed, both are depending on the cultivation conditions and appropriate ...

Microbial Carotenoids

2012
Carotenoids are among the most widely distributed pigments in nature, and they are exclusively synthesized by plants and microorganisms. These compounds may serve a protective role against many chronic diseases such as cancers, age-related macular degeneration, and cardiovascular diseases and also act as an excellent antioxidant system within cells ...

Microbial Expansins

Annual Review of Microbiology, 2017
Expansins are small proteins that loosen plant cell walls and cellulosic materials without lytic activity. First discovered in plants, expansin genes are found in the genomes of numerous bacteria and fungi that interact with plants in pathogenic and mutualistic patterns, as well as in microbes that feed on plant debris.

Microbial Communities

2008
Microorganisms comprise about half of the biomass on our planet and play a key role in the biogeochemical cycling of elements like carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur. Furthermore, due to their small size and short generation time, microorganisms provide ideal model systems for the study of many universal ecological processes.To understand the population ...

Microbial biotechnology

Trends in Biotechnology, 2000
For thousands of years, microorganisms have been used to supply products such as bread, beer and wine. A second phase of traditional microbial biotechnology began during World War I and resulted in the development of the acetone-butanol and glycerol fermentations, followed by processes yielding, for example, citric acid, vitamins and antibiotics.

Microbial Levan

1990
Levans are natural polymers of the sugar fructose found in many plants and microbial products. Like dextrans, they are formed as an undesirable by-product of sugar juice processing. On the other hand, levans, which can only be produced from sucrose, have potential industrial applications as thickeners and encapsulating agents and could provide ...
