A 3D calcium-deficient hydroxyapatite-based scaffold with gold nanoparticles effective against Micrococcus luteus as an artificial bone substitute

Materials & Design, 2022
During implant surgery, microbial contamination of implants is a major issue that must be addressed to avoid acute and chronic post-surgery infection that may result in acute inflammation, a lengthy healing period, and surgical failure.

DNA-relaxing enzyme from Micrococcus luteus [PDF]

Nucleic Acids Research, 1977
A DNA-relaxing enzyme which catalyzes the conversion of superhelical DNA to a non-superhelical covalently closed form has been purified from Micrococcus luteus to near homogeneity by two chromatographic steps. The enzyme is a single polypeptide chain.

Taxonomy and chemical characterization of antibiotics of Streptosporangium Sg 10 isolated from a Saharan soil [PDF]

, 2006
A new actinomycete strain designated Sg 10, producing antimicrobial substances was isolated from an Algerian soil. Morphological and chemical studies indicated that strain Sg 10 belonged to the genus Streptosporangium.

Pre-induction of Hsp70 expression to protect the grooved carpet shell clam, Ruditapes decussatus, against Micrococcus luteus: A trained immunity strategy

Egyptian Journal of Aquatic Research, 2020
Bacterial pathogens cause disease-associated mortality in Ruditapes decussatus, a model bivalve for aquaculture in Egypt. In this study, it was hypothesized that trained immunity could be achieved to enhance disease resistance against Micrococcus luteus ...

Protein synthesis in vitro by Micrococcus luteus [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1991
Bacillus subtilis and related gram-positive bacteria which have low to moderate genomic G + C contents are unable to efficiently translate mRNA derived from gram-negative bacteria, whereas Escherichia coli and other gram-negative bacteria are able to translate mRNA from both types of organisms.

Resuscitation-promoting factors possess a lysozyme-like domain [PDF]

, 2004
The novel bacterial cytokine family – resuscitation-promoting factors (Rpfs) – share a conserved domain of uncharacterized function. Predicting the structure of this domain suggests that Rpfs possess a lysozyme-like domain.

Micrococcus luteus - Survival in Amber

Microbial Ecology, 2004
A growing body of evidence now supports the isolation of microorganisms from ancient materials. However, questions about the stringency of extraction methods and the genetic relatedness of isolated organisms to their closest living relatives continue to challenge the authenticity of these ancient life forms.
