| sequencing the gene encoding manganese-dependent superoxide dismutase for rapid species identification of enterococci. | simple pcr and sequencing assays that utilize a single pair of degenerate primers were used to characterize a 438-bp-long dna fragment internal (soda(int)) to the soda gene encoding the manganese-dependent superoxide dismutase in 19 enterococcal type strains (enterococcus avium, enterococcus casseliflavus, enterococcus cecorum, enterococcus columbae, enterococcus dispar, enterococcus durans, enterococcus faecalis, enterococcus faecium, enterococcus flavescens, enterococcus gallinarum, enterococc ... | 2000 | 10618129 |
| evidence for horizontal gene transfer in evolution of elongation factor tu in enterococci. | the elongation factor tu, encoded by tuf genes, is a gtp binding protein that plays a central role in protein synthesis. one to three tuf genes per genome are present, depending on the bacterial species. most low-g+c-content gram-positive bacteria carry only one tuf gene. we have designed degenerate pcr primers derived from consensus sequences of the tuf gene to amplify partial tuf sequences from 17 enterococcal species and other phylogenetically related species. the amplified dna fragments were ... | 2000 | 11092850 |
| identification of enterococcal isolates by temperature gradient gel electrophoresis and partial sequence analysis of pcr-amplified 16s rdna variable v6 regions. | based on partial sequence analysis of pcr-amplified 16s rdna variable v6 regions of 14 enterococcal type strains, enterococcus faecalis, enterococcus mundtii, enterococcus gallinarum, enterococcus avium, enterococcus raffinosus and enterococcus saccharolyticus showed characteristic sequence motifs which made it possible to separate them into six individual species lines. furthermore, two species cluster groups could be identified, including (i) enterococcus faecium, enterococcus durans, enteroco ... | 2001 | 11430498 |
| microbial and physiological characterization of weakly amylolytic but fast-growing lactic acid bacteria: a functional role in supporting microbial diversity in pozol, a mexican fermented maize beverage. | pozol is an acid beverage obtained from the natural fermentation of nixtamal (heat- and alkali-treated maize) dough. the concentration of mono- and disaccharides from maize is reduced during nixtamalization, so that starch is the main carbohydrate available for lactic acid fermentation. in order to provide some basis to understand the role of amylolytic lactic acid bacteria (alab) in this fermented food, their diversity and physiological characteristics were determined. forty amylolytic strains ... | 2003 | 12902217 |
| molecular analysis of artisanal italian cheeses reveals enterococcus italicus sp. nov. | the taxonomic positions of seven atypical enterococcus strains, isolated from artisanal italian cheeses, were investigated in a polyphasic study. by using 16s rrna gene sequencing, dna-dna hybridization and intergenic transcribed spacer analysis, as well as by examining the phenotypic properties, the novel isolates were shown to constitute a novel enterococcal species. their closest relatives are enterococcus sulfureus and enterococcus saccharolyticus, having a 16s rrna gene sequence similarity ... | 2004 | 15388734 |
| enterococcus saccharominimus sp. nov., from dairy products. | four isolates, which were obtained from belgian, moroccan and romanian dairy products, constituted a homogeneous but unidentified taxon after screening with whole-cell protein fingerprinting. complete 16s rrna gene sequence analysis classified representative strains in the genus enterococcus. highest sequence similarities of 98.6 and 98.0 % were obtained with the species enterococcus sulfureus and enterococcus saccharolyticus, respectively. growth characteristics, biochemical features, trna inte ... | 2004 | 15545454 |
| enterococcus aquimarinus sp. nov., isolated from sea water. | two enterococcal strains lmg 16607(t) and lmg 16612 originating from sea water were analysed in a polyphasic taxonomic study. both strains, assigned as enterococcus sp. in the bccm/lmg culture collection, possessed analogous protein profiles, but these were different from all other enterococcal species. 16s rrna gene sequence analysis of one strain showed the highest similarity, 96.9-96.1%, with its closest phylogenetic neighbours enterococcus saccharolyticus, enterococcus sulfureus, enterococcu ... | 2005 | 16166729 |
| enterococcus bulliens sp. nov., a novel lactic acid bacterium isolated from camel milk. | four lactic acid bacteria isolates obtained from fresh dromedary camel milk produced in dakhla, a city in southern morocco, were characterised in order to determine their taxonomic position. the four isolates had highly similar maldi-tof ms and rapd fingerprints and identical 16s rrna gene sequences. comparative sequence analysis revealed that the 16s rrna gene sequence of the four isolates was most similar to that of enterococcus sulfureus atcc 49903(t) and enterococcus italicus dsm 15952(t) (9 ... | 2015 | 26346480 |
| changes in the bacterial community and composition of fermentation products during ensiling of wilted italian ryegrass and wilted guinea grass silages. | to gain further insights into temperate and tropical grass ensiling, fermentation products and bacterial communities were examined at both the initial and late stages of ensiling of wilted italian ryegrass and wilted guinea grass silages. 2,3-butanediol and ethanol fermentation were observed in wilted italian ryegrass silage. enterobacteria such as rahnella sp. and enterobacter sp. may have been involved in fermentation; however, alcohol production was intensified after the silage enterobacteria ... | 2013 | 23607694 |
