n-Butanol production by Rhodopseudomonas palustris TIE-1
Bai et al show that the anoxygenic phototroph strain TIE-1 can produce n-butanol using organic acids or CO2 as a carbon source, light as an energy source, and H2, Fe(II), or electrons from renewably generated electricity as an electron source. This study

Rhodopseudomonas palustris: A biotechnology chassis
Rhodopseudomonas palustris is an attractive option for biotechnical applications and industrial engineering due to its metabolic versatility and its ability to catabolize a wide variety of feedstocks and convert them to several high-value products. Given its adaptable metabolism, R.

Dynamics of Microbial Communities in Phototrophic Polyhydroxyalkanoate Accumulating Cultures
Phototrophic mixed cultures (PMC) are versatile systems which can be applied for waste streams, valorisation and production of added-value compounds, such as polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA).

Carbohydrate Metabolism in Rhodopseudomonas spheroides [PDF]
SUMMARY: The wild-type strain of Rhodopseudomonas spheroides 2.4.1 does not utilize exogenously supplied gluconate and grows poorly with glucose, fructose or mannose as substrates, accumulating aldonic acids and 2-keto-3-deoxy gluconic acid in media containing these sugars. Mutants which are capable of growing well with glucose without the accumulation

Porin from Rhodopseudomonas sphaeroides [PDF]
A protein homooligomer was purified from both the cell envelope fractions and the saline extracts of Rhodopseudomonas sphaeroides cells. This oligomer exhibited strong porin activity when reconstituted into proteoliposomes with egg phosphatidylcholine. In the saline extracts of both chemotrophically and phototrophically grown cells, the porin oligomer ...

Metabolism of Methanol by Rhodopseudomonas acidophila [PDF]
Rhodopseudomonas acidophila strain 10050, grown anaerobically in the light on methanol, contained a methanol and formaldehyde dehydrogenase which could be coupled to phenazine methosulphate; an NAD-linked formaldehyde dehydrogenase which required GSH for activity; and an NAD-linked formate dehydrogenase.

Ferrochelatase of Rhodopseudomonas spheroides [PDF]
Extracts of Rhodopseudomonas spheroides contain two ferrochelatases: one is soluble and forms metalloporphyrins from deuteroporphyrin and haematoporphyrin; the other is particulate and forms metalloporphyrins from protoporphyrin, mesoporphyrin, deuteroporphyrin and haematoporphyrin.
