Metabolism is required for chemotaxis to sugars in Rhodobacter sphaeroides [PDF]
Summary: Chemotaxis towards carbohydrates is mediated, in enteric bacteria, either by the transport-independent, methylation-dependent chemotaxis pathway or by transport and phosphorylation via the phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP)-dependent phosphotransferase system (PTS).

Es werde Licht! Licht als Antrieb und Regulator in synthetischen Zellen
Zellen sind Systeme außerhalb des Gleichgewichts, die ihre Eigenschaften in Raum und Zeit regulieren. In biomimetischen synthetischen Zellen bietet Licht eine einzigartige Möglichkeit, Vorgänge räumlich und zeitlich anzutreiben und zu kontrollieren.

Mechanistic Studies of Rhodobacter sphaeroides Me2SO Reductase [PDF]
Studies of the molybdenum-containing dimethyl sulfoxide reductase from Rhodobacter sphaeroides have yielded new insight into its catalytic mechanism. A series of reductive titrations, performed over the pH range 6-10, reveal that the absorption spectrum of reduced enzyme is highly sensitive to pH.

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

Let There be Light! Light as an Engine and Regulator in Synthetic Cells
Cells are out‐of‐equilibrium systems that regulate their spatiotemporal features. In biomimetic synthetic cells, light offers a unique way for energizing and regulating events in space and time. This review explores the implementation of light‐responsive tools in synthetic cells to replicate biological functions and enable new bioinspired behaviors ...

Electron transport-dependent taxis in Rhodobacter sphaeroides [PDF]
Rhodobacter sphaeroides showed chemotaxis to the terminal electron acceptors oxygen and dimethyl sulfoxide, and the responses to these effectors were shown to be influenced by the relative activities of the different electron transport pathways. R. sphaeroides cells tethered by their flagella showed a step-down response to a decrease in the oxygen or ...

Abstract Biological nitrogen fixation in symbiotic diazotrophs is subject to oxygen regulation by an oxygen‐sensing FixLJ two‐component system under micro‐oxic conditions. However, it remains unclear whether this mechanism is conserved in free‐living diazotrophs.

Structural Characterization of the Fla2 Flagellum of Rhodobacter sphaeroides [PDF]
ABSTRACT Rhodobacter sphaeroides is a free-living alphaproteobacterium that contains two clusters of functional flagellar genes in its genome: one acquired by horizontal gene transfer (fla1) and one that is endogenous (fla2).
