Frontiers in Microbiology, 2012 The nucleoid of the planctomycete Gemmata obscuriglobus is unique within the Bacteria in being both highly condensed and enclosed by a double-membrane nuclear envelope, seemingly analogous to those of the nucleus of eukaryotes.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 It is widely assumed that there is a clear distinction between eukaryotes, with cell nuclei, and prokaryotes, which lack nuclei. This suggests the evolution of nuclear compartmentation is a singular event.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 The Planctomycetes bacteria have unique cell architectures with heavily invaginated membranes as confirmed by three-dimensional models reconstructed from FIB-SEM images of Tuwongella immobilis and Gemmata obscuriglobus.

Bringing the diversity of Planctomycetes into the light: Introduction to papers from the special issue on novel taxa of Planctomycetes [PDF]
Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, 2020 Planctomycetes are very intriguing bacteria that impassion, inspire and stimulate the scholars that study them. Discovered in the beginning of the last century, they were initially confused with 'floating fungus', hence the genus name Planctomyces (planktos, wandering, floating; Gr. masc. n.

Missing lithotroph identified as new planctomycete [PDF]
Nature, 1999 With the increased use of chemical fertilizers in agriculture, many densely populated countries face environmental problems associated with high ammonia emissions. The process of anaerobic ammonia oxidation ('anammox') is one of the most innovative technological advances in the removal of ammonia nitrogen from waste water.

Impact of Salinity on the Gastrointestinal Bacterial Community of Theodoxus fluviatilis
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 Differences in salinity are boundaries that act as barriers for the dispersal of most aquatic organisms. This creates distinctive biota in freshwater and brackish water (mesohaline) environments.

Biogeography of anaerobic ammonia-oxidizing (anammox) bacteria
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014 Anaerobic ammonia-oxidizing (anammox) bacteria are able to oxidize ammonia and reduce nitrite to produce N2 gas. After being discovered in a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP), anammox bacteria were subsequently characterized in natural environments ...

Microorganisms, 2021 Planctomycetes are bacteria that were long thought to be unculturable, of low abundance, and therefore neglectable in the environment. This view changed in recent years, after it was shown that members of the phylum Planctomycetes can be abundant in many

Membrane-bounded Nucleoids and Pirellulosomes of Planctomycetes [PDF]
, 2006 Planctomycetes are peptidoglycan-less organisms that form a distinct phylum Planctomycetesof domain Bacteria. The cells of all planctomycetes examined share a cell plan involving intracellularmembranes, in which the cytoplasm is divided into compartments.
