RecET recombination system driving chromosomal target gene replacement in Zymomonas mobilis

Electronic Journal of Biotechnology, 2017
Background: Zymomonas mobilis is a Gram-negative microaerophilic bacterium with excellent ethanol-producing capabilities. The RecET recombination system provides an efficient tool for direct targeting of genes in the bacterial chromosome by PCR fragments.

The return of metabolism: biochemistry and physiology of glycolysis

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 751-803, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Glycolysis is a fundamental metabolic pathway central to the bioenergetics and physiology of virtually all living organisms. In this comprehensive review, we explore the intricate biochemical principles and evolutionary origins of glycolytic pathways, from the classical Embden–Meyerhof–Parnas (EMP) pathway in humans to various prokaryotic and ...

Engineered Probiotics: The Next‐Generation Therapeutics to Combat Antibiotic‐Resistant Bacterial Infections

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.
Engineered probiotics secretes fusion proteins which potentially neutralized the toxins secreted by other microbial communities. ABSTRACT On a global scale, the escalating burden of infectious diseases, predominantly attributed to bacterial pathogens, especially drug‐resistant strains, has progressed into a critical concern for clinical management and ...

Aerobic catabolism and respiratory lactate bypass in Ndh-negative Zymomonas mobilis

Metabolic Engineering Communications, 2018
Ability to ferment in the presence of oxygen increases the robustness of bioprocesses and opens opportunity for novel industrial setups. The ethanologenic bacterium Zymomonas mobilis performs rapid and efficient anaerobic ethanol fermentation, yet its ...

Evaluation of the Therapeutic Potential of Bioactive Materials Based on a Complex of Oxidovanadium(IV) and Exopolysaccharide Levan in a Model of Insulin Resistance in Mice

ChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 4, 25 February 2026.
A low‐toxicity bioactive composition of oxidovanadium(IV) and exopolysaccharide levan is synthesized, characterized, and shown to reduce hyperglycemia, hypertriglyceridemia, and TyG index in a mice model of dexamethasone‐induced insulin resistance. Bioactive compositions containing vanadium complexes have been a viable strategy for constructing more ...

Transformation of Zymomonas mobilis with plasmid DNA.

Agricultural and Biological Chemistry, 1986
A method for the transformation of Zymomonas mobilis with plasmid DNA was developed by using shuttle vectors, pZA31, pZA32 and pZA33, as a source of transforming DNA. Partial spheroplasts of Z. mobilis were prepared by growing cells in a hypertonic medium supplemented with a drug which inhibits the biosynthesis of bacterial cell walls, such as ...

Previously Uncharacterised Aliphatic Amino Acid Positions Modulate the Apparent Catalytic Activity of the EAL Domain of ZMO_1055 and Other Cyclic Di‐GMP‐Specific EAL Phosphodiesterases

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 2, February 2026.
The A526V substitution, previously not recognised to affect the functionality of the EAL domain, downregulates the apparent catalytic activity of the PAS‐GGDEF‐EAL ZMO1055 phosphodiesterase and other GGDEF‐EAL proteins. Substitution of A526, which is conserved among homologues, with amino acids with longer aliphatic side chains than valine, reverts to ...

Switchgrass Steroidal Saponins Reduce Fungal Disease but Decrease Yeast Fermentation Yield

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 1, January 2026.
Yeast fermentation of switchgrass biomass is inhibited for certain genotypes, especially those with high concentrations of steroidal saponins that protect against fungal disease. Inhibition can be reversed through (1) ergosterol addition, (2) fermentation with the bacterium Zymonomas mobilis, or (3) in different collection years.
