DegS and RseP homologous proteases are involved in singlet oxygen dependent activation of RpoE in Rhodobacter sphaeroides. [PDF]
Singlet oxygen ((1)O2) is the main agent of photooxidative stress and is generated by photosensitizers as (bacterio)chlorophylls. It leads to the damage of cellular macromolecules and therefore photosynthetic organisms have to mount an adaptive response ...

Rhodobacter sphaeroides: complexity in chemotactic signalling
Most bacteria have much more complex chemosensory systems than those of the extensively studied Escherichia coli. Rhodobacter sphaeroides, for example, has multiple homologues of the E. coli chemosensory proteins. The roles of these homologues have been extensively investigated using a combination of deletion, subcellular localization and ...

Physiological and Mechanistic Studies of Phototrophic Fe(II) Oxidation in Purple Non-sulfur Bacteria [PDF]
Phototrophic Fe(II)-oxidizing bacteria use electrons from ferrous iron [Fe(II)] and energy from light to drive reductive CO₂ fixation. This metabolism is thought to be ancient in origin, and plays an important role in environmental iron cycling. It has

Efficient Cas9-based genome editing of Rhodobacter sphaeroides for metabolic engineering
Background Rhodobacter sphaeroides is a metabolically versatile bacterium that serves as a model for analysis of photosynthesis, hydrogen production and terpene biosynthesis. The elimination of by-products formation, such as poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB),
