Engineering PQS biosynthesis pathway for enhancement of bioelectricity production in pseudomonas aeruginosa microbial fuel cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The biosynthesis of the redox shuttle, phenazines, in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, an ubiquitous microorganism in wastewater microflora, is regulated by the 2-heptyl-3,4-dihydroxyquinoline (PQS) quorum-sensing system. However, PQS inhibits anaerobic growth of

The phenazine pyocyanin is a terminal signalling factor in the quorum sensing network of Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Certain members of the fluorescent pseudomonads produce and secrete phenazines. These heterocyclic, redox-active compounds are toxic to competing organisms, and the cause of these antibiotic effects has been the focus of intense research efforts.

Global landscape of phenazine biosynthesis and biodegradation reveals species-specific colonization patterns in agricultural soils and crop microbiomes

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Phenazines are natural bacterial antibiotics that can protect crops from disease. However, for most crops it is unknown which producers and specific phenazines are ecologically relevant, and whether phenazine biodegradation can counter their effects.

Effect of Producing Different Phenazines on Bacterial Fitness and Biological Control in Pseudomonas chlororaphis 30-84

open access: yesThe Plant Pathology Journal, 2018
Pseudomonas chlororaphis 30-84 is a biological control agent selected for its ability to suppress diseases caused by fungal pathogens. P. chlororaphis 30-84 produces three phenazines: phenazine-1-carboxylic acid (PCA), 2-hydroxy-phenazine-1-carboxylic ...

Electrochemical reduction of oxygen catalyzed by Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Pseudomonas aeruginosa has already been shown to catalyze oxidation processes in the anode compartment of a microbial fuel cell. The present study focuses on the reverse capacity of the bacterium, i.e. reduction catalysis. Here we show that P. aeruginosa

Phenazin-5-ium bromide [PDF]

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section E Structure Reports Online, 2012
In the title compound, C(12)H(9)N(2) (+)·Br(-), the protonated tricyclic ring system is slightly twisted, with a dihedral angle of 3.9 (1)° between the two outer benzene rings. In the crystal, N-H⋯Br and C-H⋯Br hydrogen bonds link two cations and two bromide anions into centrosymmetric assemblies, which are further packed into stacks along [010] via π ...

Application of Magnetically Assisted Reactors for Modulation of Growth and Pyocyanin Production by Pseudomonas aeruginosa

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a producer of desired secondary metabolites, including pyocyanin. Potential uses of this pigment urge a search for improved production methods.

Characterization of CMR5c and CMR12a, novel fluorescent Pseudomonas strains from the cocoyam rhizosphere with biocontrol activity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Aim: To screen for novel antagonistic Pseudomonas strains producing both phenazines and biosurfactants that are as effective as Pseudomonas aeruginosa PNA1 in the biocontrol of cocoyam root rot caused by Pythium myriotylum.

Wasteful Azo Dyes as a Source of Biologically Active Building Blocks

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
In this work, an environment-friendly enzymatic strategy was developed for the valorisation of dye-containing wastewaters. We set up biocatalytic processes for the conversion of azo dyes representative of the main classes used in the textile industry ...

Redox Reactions of Phenazine Antibiotics with Ferric (Hydr)oxides and Molecular Oxygen [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Phenazines are small redox-active molecules produced by a variety of bacteria. Beyond merely serving as antibiotics, recent studies suggest that phenazines play important physiological roles, including one in iron acquisition.
