Enhanced fatty acid production in engineered chemolithoautotrophic bacteria using reduced sulfur compounds as energy sources [PDF]
Chemolithoautotrophic bacteria that oxidize reduced sulfur compounds, such as H2S, while fixing CO2 are an untapped source of renewable bioproducts from sulfide-laden waste, such as municipal wastewater.

Thiobacillus perometabolis nov. sp., a non-autotrophic thiobacillus [PDF]
A new chemolithotrophic bacterium unable to grow autotrophically is described. Its growth occurs with yeast extract or casein hydrolysate and is greatly enhaced by the addition of thiosulfate or a variety of individual organic compounds. Growth also occurs in a mineral salts medium to which both thiosulfate and an appropriate single organic substrate ...

Porin fromThiobacillus versutus [PDF]
The porin of Thiobacillus versutus IFO 14567 was isolated by extraction of cell-envelopes with sodium dodecyl sulfate. It exhibited strong porin-activity after reconstitution into artificial lipid bilayer membranes. The diameter of the pore was determined as 1.6 nm, with a weak selectivity for cations being observed. The porin migrated as a single band

The Tricarboxylic Acid Cycle in Thiobacillus denitrificans and Thiobacillus-A2 [PDF]
SUMMARY: The enzymes involved in the tricarboxylic acid cycle and some other related reactions were measured quantitatively in cell-free extracts from the obligate autotroph Thiobacillus denitrificans grown anaerobically, and in the facultative autotroph Thiobacillus-A 2 grown under various conditions.

Transpositional Mutagenesis of Thiobacillus novellus and Thiobacillus versutus [PDF]
Transpositional mutagenesis of Thiobacillus novellus by Tn 501 was achieved by means of the incompatibility of IncP plasmids. Tn 501 insertion caused three types of mutant phenotypes: isoleucine auxotrophy, lysine auxotrophy, and a reduced ability to oxidize reduced ...

Phylogenetic analysis reveals an ancient gene duplication as the origin of the MdtABC efflux pump. [PDF]
The efflux pumps from the Resistance-Nodulation-Division family, RND, are main contributors to intrinsic antibiotic resistance in Gram-negative bacteria. Among this family, the MdtABC pump is unusual by having two inner membrane components.
