As the source of first reported class non-mammalian hemoglobin, Vitreoscilla sp. C1 is a historically important microorganism that has offered clues to understanding how bacteria can thrive at low oxygen tension, with potential applications wastewater and sludge bioengineering. However, processes enable this bacterium in such environments remain unclear. In study, we analyzed published genome predict core metabolic pathways used by support cell growth under hypoxic conditions, compared them...
Phytopathogens deploy glycoside hydrolases (GHs) to disintegrate plant cell walls for nutrition and invasion. However, the pathogenic mechanisms of majority GHs in virulence remain unknown, especially oomycetes. In this study, a Phytophthora sojae gene encodes GH7 family cellobiohydrolase, named PsGH7a, was identified. PsGH7a highly induced during cyst germination infection stages. is conserved oomycetes, shares high amino acid sequence identity (>85%) within genus. The recombinant catalyzes...
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a Gram-negative γ-proteobacterium that forms part of the normal human microbiota and it also an opportunistic pathogen, responsible for 30% all nosocomial urinary tract infections. P. carries highly branched respiratory chain allows colonization many environments, such as tract, catheters other medical devices. contains three different NADH dehydrogenases (complex I, NQR NDH-2), whose physiologic roles have not been elucidated, up to five terminal oxidases:...
A Gram-stain-negative, strictly aerobic, non-motile and rod-shaped bacterium, designated ZYF650T, was isolated from the hadal seawater (9600 m) of Mariana Trench. Results phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that ZYF650T formed a lineage within family Alteromonadaceae distinct most closely related species Marinobacter mobilis nitratireducens with similarities 98.0 97.7 %, respectively. Strain showed average nucleotide identity values 75.7 % hydrocarbonoclasticus,...
A Gram-stain-negative, strictly aerobic, rod-shaped bacterium, without flagellum and designated ZYF765 T , was isolated from seawater sampled at a depth of 4000 m in the Mariana Trench. Strain grew with 1–15 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 4 %), 16–37 °C (28 °C) pH 6.0–10.0 (pH 7.0–8.0). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain formed lineage within family Hyphomonadaceae distinct most closely related species Glycocaulis abyssi albus alkaliphilus similarities...
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a common cause of urinary tract infections by strains that are often multidrug resistant, representing major challenge to the world’s health care system. This microorganism has highly adaptable metabolism allows it colonize many environments, including tract. In this work, we have characterized metabolic strategies used stationary phase P. cells cultivated in urine-like media understand adaptations survive and produce disease. Our proteomics results show rely on...
The ion-pumping NQR complex is an essential respiratory enzyme in the physiology of many pathogenic bacteria. This transfers electrons from NADH to ubiquinone through several cofactors, including riboflavin (vitamin B2). only reported that able use as a cofactor. Moreover, molecule found stable neutral semiquinone radical. otherwise highly reactive unpaired electron stabilized via unknown mechanism. Crystallographic data suggested might be superficially located site interface subunits B and...
