| bacillus paralicheniformis sp. nov., isolated from fermented soybean paste. | an isolate of a gram-stain-positive, facultatively anaerobic, motile, rod-shaped, endospore-forming bacterium was recovered from soybean-based fermented paste. phylogenetic analysis of the 16s rrna gene indicated that the strain was most closely related to bacillus sonorensis kctc-13918t (99.5 % similarity) and bacillus licheniformis dsm 13t (99.4 %). in phenotypic characterization, the novel strain was found to grow at 15–60 °c and to tolerate up to 10 % (w/v) nacl. furthermore, the strain grew ... | 2015 | 26296568 |
| formicin - a novel broad-spectrum two-component lantibiotic produced by bacillus paralicheniformis apc 1576. | bacteriocins represent a rather underutilized class of antimicrobials despite often displaying activity against many drug-resistant pathogens. lantibiotics are a post-translationally modified class of bacteriocins, characterized by the presence of lanthionine and methyllanthionine bridges. in this study, a novel two-peptide lantibiotic was isolated and characterized. formicin was isolated from bacillus paralicheniformis apc 1576, an antimicrobial-producing strain originally isolated from the int ... | 2016 | 27450592 |
| a bacillus paralicheniformis iron-containing urease reduces urea concentrations in rice wine. | urease, a nickel-containing metalloenzyme, was the first enzyme to be crystallized and has a prominent position in the history of biochemistry. in the present study, we identified a nickel urease gene cluster, ureabcefgdh, in bacillus paralicheniformis atcc 9945a and characterized it in escherichia coli enzymatic assays demonstrate that this oxygen-stable urease is also an iron-containing acid urease. heterologous expression assays of ureh suggest that this accessory protein is involved in the t ... | 2017 | 28646111 |
| bacillus camelliae sp. nov., isolated from pu'er tea. | a novel aerobic, gram-stain-positive, sporogenous, rod-shaped bacterial strain, 7578-1t, was isolated from ripened pu'er tea. based on 16s rrna gene sequence similarity comparisons, strain 7578-1t was grouped into the genus bacillus and appeared to be closely related to the type strains bacillus shackletoniilmg 18435t (98.4 %), bacillus acidicoladsm 14745t (97.6 %), bacillus paralicheniformis kacc 18426t (97.2 %) and bacillus ginsengihumi kctc 13944t (96.7 %). the fatty acid profile containing t ... | 2018 | 29300151 |
| disarm is a widespread bacterial defence system with broad anti-phage activities. | the evolutionary pressure imposed by phage predation on bacteria and archaea has resulted in the development of effective anti-phage defence mechanisms, including restriction-modification and crispr-cas systems. here, we report on a new defence system, disarm (defence island system associated with restriction-modification), which is widespread in bacteria and archaea. disarm is composed of five genes, including a dna methylase and four other genes annotated as a helicase domain, a phospholipase ... | 2018 | 29085076 |
| complete genome sequence of bacillus paralicheniformis 14da11, exhibiting resistance to clindamycin and erythromycin. | bacillus paralicheniformis 14da11, exhibiting resistance to clindamycin and erythromycin, was isolated from a korean fermented soybean food product. the complete genome of strain 14da11 includes genes that potentially contribute to the antibiotic resistance. | 2017 | 29074671 |
| characterization, antioxidant property and cytoprotection of exopolysaccharide-capped elemental selenium particles synthesized by bacillus paralicheniformis sr14. | instead of using existing methods to chemically synthesize elemental selenium particles (cheseps), which first require separating and purifying polysaccharides or proteins and adding extra reducing agent, this study applied a novel method to directly assemble exopolysaccharide-capped biogenic elemental selenium particles (eps-bioseps) by bacillus paralicheniformis sr14 during the metabolic process. characterization by energy dispersive x-ray spectrometry (edx), scanning electron microscopy (sem) ... | 2017 | 29050583 |
| complete genome sequence of bacillus paralicheniformis mdjk30, a plant growth-promoting rhizobacterium with antifungal activity. | bacillus paralicheniformis mdjk30 was isolated from the rhizosphere of a peony. it could control the pathogen of peony root rot. here, we report the complete genome sequence of b. paralicheniformis mdjk30. eleven secondary metabolism gene clusters were predicted. | 2017 | 28642380 |
