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

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).

CHEMICALLY MODIFIED PHOTOSYNTHETIC BACTERIAL REACTION CENTERS: CIRCULAR DICHROISM, RAMAN RESONANCE, LOW TEMPERATURE ABSORPTION, FLUORESCENCE AND ODMR SPECTRA AND POLYPEPTIDE COMPOSITION OF BOROHYDRIDE TREATED REACTION CENTERS FROM Rhodobacter sphaeroides R26 [PDF]
Reaction centers from Rhodobacter sphaeroides have been modified by treatment with sodium borohydride similar to the original procedure [Ditson et al., Biochim. Biophys. Acta 766, 623 (1984)], and investigated spectroscopically and by gel electrophoresis.

Rhodopseudomonas rutila Is a Later Subjective Synonym of Rhodopseudomonas palustris [PDF]
Phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, and DNA-DNA hybridization studies of strains of Rhodopseudomonas rutila Akiba et al. 1983 and Rhodopseudomonas palustris (Molisch 1907) van Niel 1944 demonstrated synonymy between the two species. We propose that they be classified into a single species, retaining the name R. palustris.

Glycerol dissimilation in Rhodopseudomonas sphaeroides [PDF]
Rhodopseudomonas sphaeroides followed a diauxic growth curve when grown on a malate-glycerol medium, the first phase of growth being supported by malate and the second by glycerol. A soluble glycerokinase and a particulate, pyridine nucleotide-independent glycerophosphate dehydrogenase, were induced by the presence of glycerol in the medium, but ...

Carotenoid triplet state formation in Rhodobacter sphaeroides R-26 reaction centers exchanged with modified bacteriochlorophyll pigments and reconstituted with spheroidene [PDF]
Triplet state electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) experiments have been carried out at X-band on Rb. sphaeroides R-26 reaction centers that have been reconstituted with the carotenoid, spheroidene, and exchanged with 132-OH-Zn-bacteriochlorophyll a and

Nitrate reductase from Rhodopseudomonas sphaeroides [PDF]
The facultative phototroph Rhodopseudomonas sphaeroides DSM158 was incapable of either assimilating or dissimilating nitrate, although the organism could reduce it enzymatically to nitrite either anaerobically in the light or aerobically in the dark. Reduction of nitrate was mediated by a nitrate reductase bound to chromatophores that could be easily ...

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.
