function of growth factors for rumen microorganisms. i. nutritional characteristics of selenomonas ruminantium.nutritional characteristics of selenomonas ruminantium var. lactilytica isolated from a sheep rumen were studied. the organism required for growth the addition of a clarified rumen fluid to a trypticase-yeast extract medium with either lactate or glucose as an energy source. the requirement for rumen fluid was found to be satisfied by volatile fatty acids in glucose media and by biotin in lactate media. straight-chain saturated fatty acids with c(3) to c(10) carbon skeleton had been found to be ...19676020417
ammonia assimilation and glutamate formation in the anaerobe selenomonas ruminantium.selenomonas ruminantium was found to possess two pathways for nh4+ assimilation that resulted in net glutamate synthesis. one pathway fixed nh4+ through the action of an nadph-linked glutamate dehydrogenase (gdh). maximal gdh activity required kcl (about 0.48 m), but a variety of monovalent salts could replace kcl. complete substrate saturation of the enzyme by nh4+ did not occur, and apparent km values of 6.7 and 23 mm were estimated. also, an nadh-linked gdh activity was observed but was not s ...19806102549
regulation of urease and ammonia assimilatory enzymes in selenomonas ruminantium.urease and glutamine synthetase activities in selenomonas ruminantium strain d were highest in cells grown in ammonia-limited, linear-growth cultures or when certain compounds other than ammonia served as the nitrogen source and limited the growth rate in batch cultures. glutamate dehydrogenase activity was highest during glucose (energy)-limited growth or when ammonia was not growth limiting. a positive correlation (r = 0.96) between glutamine synthetase and urease activities was observed for a ...19816114707
a note on the fermentation of pectin by pure strains and combined cultures of rumen bacteria.bacteroides ruminicola, pure or combined with selenomonas ruminantium, and lachnospira multiparus, pure or combined with succinivibrio dextrinosolvens, were grown on a medium with pectin as energy source. there was a difference in fermentation products between the pure and combined cultures and efficiency of substrate utilization was better with the combined cultures.19816168176
long-term nutrient starvation of continuously cultured (glucose-limited) selenomonas ruminantium.selenomonas ruminantium, a strictly anaerobic ruminal bacterium, was grown at various dilution rates (d = 0.05, 0.25, and 0.35 h-1) under glucose-limited continuous culture conditions. suspensions of washed cells prepared anaerobically in mineral buffer were subjected to nutrient starvation (24 to 36 h; 39 degrees c; n2 atmosphere). regardless of growth rate, viability declined logarithmically, and within about 2.5 h, about 50% of the populations were nonviable. after 24 h of starvation, the num ...19816170629
turn-over of phospholipids in selenomonas ruminantium.the particulate enzyme prepared from selenomonas ruminantium subsp. lactilytica catalyzed the formation of phosphatidylserine (ps) from cdp-diglyceride and serine, and phosphatidylethanolamine (pe) from ps. this indicates that ps and pe in this organism are synthesized through a similar pathway to that in escherichia coli. in turn-over experiments with [32p]orthophosphate and [14c]caproate, a rapid turn-over of pe was observed, while ethanolamine plasmalogen was relatively stable. the decrease o ...19846325403
purification and properties of selenomonas ruminantium lysine decarboxylase.selenomonas ruminantium, a strictly anaerobic, gram-negative bacterium isolated from sheep rumen, contains lysine decarboxylase (y. kamio et al., j. bacteriol. 145:122-128, 1981). this report describes the synthesis, purification, and characterization of the enzyme. lysine decarboxylase was synthesized in cells grown in chemically defined medium without lysine. the enzyme was purified approximately 1,800-fold to electrophoretic homogeneity. the native enzyme of approximate molecular weight 88,00 ...19836401702
alpha-ketoglutarate metabolism by cytochrome-containing anaerobes.during growth in the presence of tracer amounts of exogenously supplied alpha-keto[1-14c]glutarate (akg) or alpha-keto [5-14c]glutarate, cytochrome-containing bacteroides fragilis strain 2044 and bacteroides vulgatus strain 8482 incorporated extremely small amounts of radioactivity into cell macromolecules and protoheme. under identical conditions, bacteroides "l" strain 7cm and bacteroides buccae strain j1 incorporated substantial label from [5-14c]akg, but not [1-14c]akg, into cellular macromo ...19836413047
the uptake and utilization of entodinium caudatum, bacteria, free amino acids and glucose by the rumen ciliate entodinium bursa.washed suspensions of entodinium bursa were incubated anaerobically with entodinium caudatum, ten species of bacteria and a yeast. the rate of uptake and digestion of these micro-organisms was investigated. protozoa grown in vivo did not engulf proteus mirabilis or klebsiella aerogenes but rapidly took up bacillus megaterium. selenomonas ruminantium, torulopsis glabrata and streptococcus bovis, although only the last was digested with release of soluble material into the medium. protozoa grown i ...19846427172
selenite uptake and incorporation by selenomonas ruminantium.selenite uptake and incorporation in selenomonas ruminantium was constitutive with an inducible component. it was distinct from sulphate or selenate transport, since sulphate and selenate did not inhibit uptake, nor could sulphate or selenate uptake be demonstrated. selenite uptake had an apparent km of 1.28 mm and a vmax of 148 ng se min-1 mg-1 protein. uptake was sensitive to inhibition by 2,4-dinitrophenol (dnp), carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenyl hydrazone (cccp), azide, iodoacetic acid (iaa) a ...19846442129
effects of chetomin on growth and acidic fermentation products of rumen bacteria.chetomin, an antibiotic metabolite of chaetomium spp., was tested in the form of its tetrathiol derivative for its effects on growth and carbohydrate metabolism by five strains of functionally important rumen bacteria. the compound was bacteriostatic for the strains tested and gram-positive bacteria were more sensitive to inhibition than gram-negative bacteria. in an anaerobic broth dilution assay using a medium lacking rumen fluid, the minimum inhibitory concentration (mic) of chetomin which co ...19836686488
changes in metabolism and cell size of the anaerobic bacterium selenomonas ruminantium 0078a at the onset of growth in continuous culture.initial metabolism of selenomonas ruminantium 0078a in continuous culture was characterized by a high lactate and low volatile fatty acid production; this was associated with poor growth as determined by bacterial dry weight production, yet individual cells were considerably larger than those of the inoculum. biomass production increased, cell size decreased and the fermentation pattern reverted to the characteristic low lactate and high volatile fatty acid production after approximately 90 h gr ...19846746466
the uptake and metabolism of bacteria, amino acids, glucose and starch by the spined and spineless forms of the rumen ciliate entodinium caudatum.spined and spineless forms of entodinium caudatum were obtained by growth in vivo in the presence and absence, respectively, of entodinium bursa. washed suspensions of both forms engulfed all the bacteria tested although the spined form took them up 1.3 to 1.9 times more rapidly per unit volume of protozoon than did the spineless form. buytrivibrio fibrisolvens and selenomonas ruminantium were rapidly digested by the spined form after engulfment. free amino acids were taken up on average 3.1 tim ...19806775042
chemical structure of peptidoglycan in selenomonas ruminantium: cadaverine links covalently to the d-glutamic acid residue of peptidoglycan.the peptidoglycan of selenomonas ruminantium, a strictly anaerobic bacterium, contains cadaverine (y. kamio, y. itoh, y. terawaki, and t. kusano, j. bacteriol. 145:122-128, 1981). this report describes the chemical structure of the peptidoglycan of this bacterium. the [14c]cadaverine-labeled peptidoglycan was degraded with the lytic enzymes prepared from streptomyces albus g into three small fragments including a major fragment (band a compound). bank a compound was composed of l-alanine, d-glut ...19816783621
the influence of extracellular hydrogen on the metabolism of bacteroides ruminicola, anaerovibrio lipolytica and selenomonas ruminantium.strains of three anaerobic rumen bacteria, bacteroides ruminicola, anaerovibrio lipolytica and selenomonas ruminantium, were able to use extracellular h2 to reduce fumarate to succinate. each bacterium possessed membrane-bound hydrogenase and fumarate reductase activity. membrane-bound cytochrome b was reducible by h2 and oxidizable by fumarate in each bacterium. the apparent km values for hydrogen of the hydrogenases were 4 . 5 x 10(-6) m, 1 . 4 x 10(-5) m and 4 . 4 x 10(-5) m for b. ruminicola ...19806785381
biosynthesis of cadaverine-containing peptidoglycan in selenomonas ruminantium.cadaverine links covalently to the d-glutamic acid residue of the peptidoglycan in selenomonas ruminantium, a strictly anaerobic, gram-negative bacterium (kamio, y., itoh, y., and terawaki, y (1981) j. bacteriol. 146, 49-53). this report describes the enzymatic properties of the particulate enzyme preparation in s. ruminantium which catalyzes the addition of cadaverine to the alpha-carboxyl group of d-glutamic acid residue of the peptidoglycan. incorporation of cadaverine into the peptidoglycan ...19827037782
effect of ph on growth rates of rumen amylolytic and lactilytic bacteria.the relationship between the ph of the medium and specific growth rates, in well-buffered media at 38.5 degrees c, was determined for three strains of butyrivibrio fibrisolvens and for one strain each of streptococcus bovis, selenomonas ruminantium subsp. lactilytica. megasphaera elsdenii, veillonella alcalescens, and propionibacterium acnes. the ph optima for growth were between 6.1 and 6.6 for all six species, and the upper ph limits were between 7.3 and 7.8. the lower limit ph values for grow ...19827125656
isolation and presumptive identification of adherent epithelial bacteria ("epimural" bacteria) from the ovine rumen wall.one hundred sixty-one strains of adherent bacteria were isolated under anaerobic conditions from four sites on the rumen epithelial surface of sheep fed hay or a hay-grain ration. before isolation of bacteria, rumen tissue was washed six times in an anaerobic dilution solution, and viable bacteria suspended in the washings were counted. calculation indicated that unattached bacteria would have been removed from the tissue by this procedure, but a slow and progressive release of attached bacteria ...19817195191
characterization of the cecal bacteria of normal pigs.one hundred ninety-two isolates from cecal contents of three normal weaned pigs were obtained by means of anaerobic roll tube methods and were characterized. seventy-eight percent of the isolates were gram-negative. the most numerous species isolated from each of the pigs was bacteroides ruminicola. this species accounted for 35% of the isolates that were characterized, and selenomonas ruminantium accounted for 21% of the isolates. other gram-negative bacteria isolated from all three pigs were b ...19817235711
isolation and characterization of outer and inner membranes of selenomonas ruminantium: lipid compositions.the isolation procedure and characterization of the outer and inner membranes from selenomonas ruminatium cells, a strictly anaerobic bacterium, are described. the metabolic fate of [14c]decanoate incorporated into the outer and inner membranes was examined. the percent distribution of radioactivities in the outer and inner membranes was about 40 and 50% of the total incorporated activity, respectively. approximately 47% of the radioactivity incorporated into the outer membrane was recovered in ...19807364719
outer membrane proteins and cell surface structure of selenomonas ruminantium.the protein compositions of the membrane preparations from selenomonas ruminantium grown in glucose or lactate medium were determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate- and two-dimensional (first, isoelectric focusing; second, sodium dodecyl sulfate) polyacrylamide slab gel electrophoresis. the outer membrane from both glucose- and lactate-grown cells contained two major proteins with apparent molecular weights of 42,000 and 40,000. these proteins existed as peptidoglycan-associated proteins in the oute ...19807364720
effect of ph on the efficiency of growth by pure cultures of rumen bacteria in continuous culture.a total of 10 strains of rumen bacteria, selenomonas ruminantium hd4, megasphaera elsdenii b159, butyrivibrio fibrisolvens a38, streptococcus bovis jb1, lactobacillus vitulinus ga1, bacteroides ruminicola b14, b. ruminicola ga33, ruminococcus albus 7, ruminococcus flavefaciens c94, and bacteroides succinogenes s85, were grown in energy-limiteh of the medium reservoir was lowered approximately 0.3 ph units, and the energy source concentration remaining in the culture vessel, optical density, cell ...19807387158
cytoplasmic reserve polysaccharide of selenomonas ruminantium.selenomonas ruminantium accumulated large quantities of intracellular polysaccharide when grown in simple defined medium in a chemostat, particularly at low dilution rate under nh3 limitation when the carbohydrate content of the cells was greater than 40% of the dry weight. this polysaccharide was used as a source of energy under conditions of energy starvation. abundant, densely staining cytoplasmic granules were observed by electron microscopy in sections stained by the periodic acid-thiocarbo ...19807387159
ammonia saturation constants for predominant species of rumen bacteria.ammonia saturation constants were determined for representative pure cultures of predominant, anaerobic, fermentative rumen bacteria. based on growth experiments with ammonia limited continuous cultures, average estimates for ammonia saturation constants of bacteroides amylophillus and bacteroides ruminicola were 10.5 and 23.5 microm ammonia-nitrogen, respectively. with ammonia-limited linear-growth cultures, the estimates for the ammonia saturation constants of b. amylophilus, b. ruminicola, an ...19807419777
cadaverine is covalently linked to peptidoglycan in selenomonas ruminantium.cadaverine was found to exist as a component of cell wall peptidoglycan of selenomonas ruminantium, a strictly anaerobic bacterium. [14c]cadaverine added to the growth medium was incorporated into the cells, and about 70% of the total radioactivity incorporated was found in the peptidoglycan fraction. when the [14c]cadaverine-labeled peptidoglycan preparation was acid hydrolyzed, all of the 14c counts were recovered as cadaverine. the [14c]cadaverine-labeled peptidoglycan preparation was digeste ...19817462141
the cellular location of prevotella ruminicola beta-1,4-d-endoglucanase and its occurrence in other strains of ruminal bacteria.prevotella ruminicola b(1)4, tc1-1, tf1-3, and ts1-5 all produced immunologically cross-reacting 88- and 82-kda carboxymethyl cellulases (cmcases). p. ruminicola 23, 118b, 20-63, and 20-78 had much lower cmcase activities, and western blots (immunoblots) showed no cross-reaction with the b(1)4 cmcase antiserum. fibrobacter succinogenes s85 and selenomonas ruminantium hd4 and d produced cmcase, but these enzymes were smaller and did not cross-react with the b(1)4 cmcase antiserum. the b(1)4 cmcas ...19957574639
effect of extracellular lactate on growth of rumen lactate producers.the addition of na-lactate (50-150 mmol/l) to media with glucose had only marginal effect on the growth of rumen lactate-producing bacteria at ph between 6.5 and 5.8. butyrivibrio fibrisolvens was somewhat more sensitive to external lactate than streptococcus bovis, lactobacillus fermentum and selenomonas ruminantium. it can be concluded that rumen lactate producers, which proliferate at the onset of rumen lactic acidosis, are not influenced by the lactate accumulation, except some non-specific ...19947619002
