[Bacteriochlorophyll a synthesis in Rhodopseudomonas palustris].
Revista Argentina de microbiologia, 1983 By means of electron microscope it was demonstrated that photosynthetically-grown Rhodopseudomonas palustris exhibits an intracytoplasmic membrane system (Figure 1a), which is not observed in aerobically-dark grown bacteria (Figure 1b). The content of bacteriochlorophyll alpha and the enzyme activity of succinil-CoA-synthetase, ALA-sinthetase and ALA ...

Molecular Basis of Bacterial Longevity
mBio, 2017 It is well known that many bacteria can survive in a growth-arrested state for long periods of time, on the order of months or even years, without forming dormant structures like spores or cysts. How is such longevity possible?

Reduction of selenite to red elemental selenium by Rhodopseudomonas palustris strain N.
PLoS ONE, 2014 The trace metal selenium is in demand for health supplements to human and animal nutrition. We studied the reduction of selenite (SeO₃⁻²) to red elemental selenium by Rhodopseudomonas palustris strain N.

Engineering Fluoroacetate Dehalogenase by Growth‐Based Selections on Non‐Natural Organofluorides
Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 10, 2 March 2026.We present a high‐throughput selection system to engineer fluoroacetate dehalogenases (FAcDs). By challenging E. coli populations that produce diverse FAcD libraries to grow on non‐natural organofluorides as their sole carbon source, we isolated a panel of FAcD variants with improved activity and altered substrate specificity.

Polyesterase activity and thermostability of carboxylesterases from Thermoleophilum album YS‐3
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Three novel α/β‐hydrolases from thermophilic bacterium Thermoleophilum album display carboxylesterase and polyesterase activity. These enzymes hydrolyse PET, PLA and PCL both at high and moderate temperatures. TA21 shows superior activity, efficiently converting MHET to terephthalic acid. Structural features underlying substrate binding highlight their
