| characterization of a highly thermostable and organic solvent-tolerant copper-containing polyphenol oxidase with dye-decolorizing ability from kurthia huakuii lam0618t. | laccases are green biocatalysts that possess attractive advantages for the treatment of resistant environmental pollutants and dye effluents. a putative laccase-like gene, laclk, encoding a protein of 29.3 kda and belonging to the cu-oxidase_4 superfamily, was cloned and overexpressed in escherichia coli. the purified recombinant protein laclk (laclk) was able to oxidize typical laccase substrates such as 2,6-dimethoxyphenol and l-dopamine. the characteristic adsorption maximums of typical lacca ... | 2016 | 27741324 |
| kurthia huakuii sp. nov., isolated from biogas slurry, and emended description of the genus kurthia. | a novel facultatively anaerobic bacterium, designated strain lam0618(t), was isolated from biogas slurry samples collected from the large-scale anaerobic digester of modern farming corporation in hebei province, china. cells of strain lam0618(t) were gram-stain-positive, motile, non-spore-forming and short-rod-shaped. the optimal temperature and ph for growth were 30 °c and 7.0, respectively. the strain did not require nacl for growth but tolerated up to 70 g nacl l(-1). the major fatty acids of ... | 2014 | 24108326 |
| multilocus sequence analysis of genus kurthia, and a description of the novel species, kurthia populi sp. nov. | four novel bacteria strains, belonging to the genus kurthia, were isolated from the surface of curculionidae (kurthia strain 10y-14t), and from hybrid poplar, populus × euramericana (kurthia strains 6-3, 2-5, and 06c10-3-14), different bark samples in puyang, henan province, china. phylogenetic analyses of the 16s rrna gene and mlsa data showed that the four strains form a distinct cluster in the genus kurthia, indicating that they all belong to a single taxon within the genus. dna-dna hybridiza ... | 2015 | 26233719 |
| multilocus sequence analysis of the genus kurthia, and a description of kurthia populi sp. nov. | four novel bacterial strains belonging to the genus kurthia were isolated from the surface of a weevil of the family curculionidae (strain 10y-14t), and from bark samples of hybrid poplar, populus × euramericana (strains 6-3, 2-5 and 06c10-3-14), in puyang, henan province, china. phylogenetic analyses of the 16s rrna gene and multilocus sequence analysis (mlsa) data showed that the four strains form a distinct cluster in the genus kurthia, indicating that they all belong to a single taxon within ... | 2015 | 28875926 |
| draft genome sequence of kurthia huakuii lam0618t, an organic-pollutant-degrading strain isolated from biogas slurry. | kurthia huakuii lam0618(t) is a facultative anaerobic pollutant-degrading bacterium isolated from biogas slurry. an analysis of the draft genome sequence of lam0618(t) reveals a genome size of 3,585,165 bp, with a mean g+c content of 39.1%. the genome contains 3,560 coding sequences and 112 trna and 33 rrna genes. | 2014 | 24435864 |
