Nanoscale Ordering of Magnetosomes Under the Influence of a Magnetic Field Investigated by Small‐Angle X‐Ray Scattering

open access: yesSmall Structures
Recently, the synthetic Rhodospirillum rubrum ‘magneticum’ has been shown to enable the light‐driven production of magnetosomes (MAGs) in high yields. These membrane‐enveloped magnetic nanoparticles represent promising alternatives to their chemically ...

Phosphate flow between hybrid histidine kinases CheA₃ and CheS₃ controls Rhodospirillum centenum cyst formation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2013
Genomic and genetic analyses have demonstrated that many species contain multiple chemotaxis-like signal transduction cascades that likely control processes other than chemotaxis.

Enhancement of biohydrogen production rate in Rhodospirillum rubrum by a dynamic CO-feeding strategy using dark fermentation

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels, 2021
Background Rhodospirillum rubrum is a purple non-sulphur bacterium that produces H2 by photofermentation of several organic compounds or by water gas-shift reaction during CO fermentation.

The Structure of Rhodospirillum rubrum [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Cell Biology, 1959
Cells from serial cultures of R. rubrum, grown anaerobically in the light, were harvested at intervals from ½ to 15 days and sectioned for electron microscopy by conventional methods. Cells of this species possess a multilayered outer envelope, and the external cell surface is differentiated into ridges extending parallel or obliquely to

regO: a novel locus in the regulation of tetrapyrrole biosynthesis in Rhodospirillum rubrum

open access: yesAnnals of Microbiology, 2023
Purpose A new locus, regO, involved in the regulation of photosynthesis gene expression in response to oxygen and light, has been studied in Rhodosprillum rubrum ATCC1117 (Rsp. rubrum) for identification of its function.

New perspectives on butyrate assimilation in Rhodospirillum rubrum S1H under photoheterotrophic conditions

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2020
Background The great metabolic versatility of the purple non-sulfur bacteria is of particular interest in green technology. Rhodospirillum rubrum S1H is an α-proteobacterium that is capable of photoheterotrophic assimilation of volatile fatty acids (VFAs)

Structural characterization of encapsulated ferritin provides insight into iron storage in bacterial nanocompartments

open access: yeseLife, 2016
Ferritins are ubiquitous proteins that oxidise and store iron within a protein shell to protect cells from oxidative damage. We have characterized the structure and function of a new member of the ferritin superfamily that is sequestered within an ...

Adenylate Charge Regulates Sensor Kinase CheS3 To Control Cyst Formation in Rhodospirillum centenum

open access: yesmBio, 2015
Rhodospirillum centenum forms metabolically dormant cysts under unfavorable growth conditions such as desiccation or nutrient starvation. The development of cysts is tightly regulated and involves a cyst-repressing chemotaxis-like signal transduction ...

New Approach for the Construction and Calibration of Gas-Tight Setups for Biohydrogen Production at the Small Laboratory Scale

open access: yesMetabolites, 2021
Biohydrogen production in small laboratory scale culture vessels is often difficult to perform and quantitate. One problem is that commonly used silicon tubing and improvised plastic connections used for constructing apparatus are cheap and easy to ...
