Differentiation of Micrococcus luteus and Micrococcus varians on the Basis of Catalase Isoenzymes [PDF]
Crude extracts prepared from four Micrococcus varians strains, 11 M. luteus strains and four laboratory isolates subsequently classified with M. luteus were assayed for catalase activity following electrophoresis on polyacrylamide gels. The enzyme patterns produced from the M. varians strains exhibited three catalase isoenzymes which were distinguished

Death of Micrococcus luteus in Soil [PDF]
Micrococcus luteus cells died relatively quickly when they were added to natural soil. The results were similar for soil in nature and as soil samples in the laboratory. The cells died more quickly when nutrients were added to the soil.

Further characterization of the polynucleotide phosphorylase of Micrococcus luteus [PDF]
The purification of polynucleotide phosphorylase from Micrococcus luteus by chromatography on phosphocellulose colums is described. This procedure offers several advantages over previous procedures. Previously determined molecular weights for Form-I enzyme and Form-T enzyme derived from Form-I by limited tryptic hydrolysis were confirmed as 2.7 and 2.3

Peptidoglycans synthesized by a membrane preparation of Micrococcus luteus [PDF]
By incubation of cell-free particulate preparations from Micrococcus luteus with nucleotidic precursors uridine 5'-diphosphate-N-acetylglucosamine and uridine 5'-diphosphate-N-acetylmuramic acid-L-Ala-D-iso-Glu-L-Lys-D-Ala-D-Ala, several types of peptidoglycans were obtained: soluble peptidoglycan, insoluble peptidoglycan bound to the membrane and ...

Variances in cellular sedimentation behavior as an effective enrichment method of hydrocarbon-overproducing Micrococcus luteus strains [PDF]
Background Aliphatic hydrocarbons of microbial origin are highly interesting candidate biofuels because these molecules are identical or very similar to the main components of petroleum-based gasoline and diesel fuels. The high-GC Gram-positive bacterium
