Rhodococcus jostii: a home for Rhodococcus strain RHA1

Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, 2013
The taxonomic position of Rhodococcus strain RHA1, an effective degrader of polychlorinated biphenyls with a large linear chromosome, was established using a polyphasic approach. The morphological and chemotaxonomic properties of the strain were typical of members of the genus Rhodococcus. The strain shared a high level of 16S rRNA sequence similarity (

Rhodococcus luteus Is a Later Subjective Synonym of Rhodococcus fascians [PDF]

International Journal of Systematic Bacteriology, 1994
The results of DNA-DNA hybridization studies and 16S ribosomal DNA sequence comparisons and chemotaxonomic data clearly indicated that Rhodococcus luteus Nesterenko et al. 1982 (O. A. Nesterenko, T. M. Nogina, S. A. Kasumova, E. I. Kvasnikow, and S. G. Batrakov, Int. J. Syst. Bacteriol. 32:1-14, 1982) and Rhodococcus fascians (Tilford) Goodfellow 1984 (

Multi-Omics Strategies to Investigate the Biodegradation of Hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine in Rhodococcus sp. Strain DN22

Microorganisms, 2023
Hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX) is an energetic and persistent explosive with long-lasting properties. Rhodococcus sp. strain DN22 has been discovered to be a microbe capable of degrading RDX.

Structural characterisation of the virulence-associated protein VapG from the horse pathogen Rhodococcus equi [PDF]

, 2015
Virulence and host range in Rhodococcus equi depends on the variable pathogenicity island of their virulence plasmids. Notable gene products are a family of small secreted virulence-associated proteins (Vaps) that are critical to intramacrophagic ...

Adhesion of Rhodococcus bacteria to solid hydrocarbons and enhanced biodegradation of these compounds

Scientific Reports, 2022
Adhesive activities of hydrocarbon-oxidizing Rhodococcus bacteria towards solid hydrocarbons, effects of adhesion on biodegradation of these compounds by rhodococcal cells and adhesion mechanisms of Rhodococcus spp. were studied in this work.

DBT degradation enhancement by decorating Rhodococcus erythropolis IGST8 with magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles [PDF]

, 2009
Biodesulfurization (BDS) of dibenzothiophene (DBT) was carried out by Rhodococcus erythropolis IGST8 decorated with magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles, synthesized in-house by a chemical method, with an average size of 45-50 nm, in order to facilitate the post-

Polyphasic Evidence for the Transfer of Rhodococcus roseus to Rhodococcus rhodochrous [PDF]

International Journal of Systematic Bacteriology, 1995
Investigation of fatty acid and mycolic acid properties of certain members of the genera Nocardia and Rhodococcus indicated identical spectra for certain pairs of organisms. Binary 16S rDNA sequence homology for the pairs Rhodococcus rhodochrous and R. roseus, Nocardia calcarea and R. erythropolis, and N. restricta and R.

Internally controlled real-time PCR method for quantitative species-specific detection and vapA genotyping of Rhodococcus equi [PDF]

, 2006
We developed a novel quantitative real-time PCR (Q-PCR) method for the soil actinomycete Rhodococcus equi, an important horse pathogen and emerging human pathogen.

Multiplicity of 3-Ketosteroid-9α-Hydroxylase Enzymes in Rhodococcus rhodochrous DSM43269 for Specific Degradation of Different Classes of Steroids [PDF]

, 2011
The well-known large catabolic potential of rhodococci is greatly facilitated by an impressive gene multiplicity. This study reports on the multiplicity of kshA, encoding the oxygenase component of 3-ketosteroid 9α-hydroxylase, a key enzyme in steroid ...

The Steroid Catabolic Pathway of the Intracellular Pathogen Rhodococcus equi Is Important for Pathogenesis and a Target for Vaccine Development [PDF]

, 2011
Rhodococcus equi causes fatal pyogranulomatous pneumonia in foals and immunocompromised animals and humans. Despite its importance, there is currently no effective vaccine against the disease. The actinobacteria R.
