| systemic infection of an immunocompromised patient with methylobacterium zatmanii. | we describe the identification of methylobacterium zatmanii as the causative agent of bacteremia and fever in an immunocompromised patient. the patient, a 60-year-old man, had a 5-month history of acute myeloid leukemia and had been on chemotherapy throughout this period. seven days after the onset of neutropenia, the patient developed fever. the combination of ciprofloxacin, co-trimoxazole, imipenem, amikacin, and vancomycin led to a complete defervescence. on subculture from six positive blood ... | 1999 | 9854105 |
| methylobacterium populi sp. nov., a novel aerobic, pink-pigmented, facultatively methylotrophic, methane-utilizing bacterium isolated from poplar trees (populus deltoides x nigra dn34). | a pink-pigmented, aerobic, facultatively methylotrophic bacterium, strain bj001t, was isolated from internal poplar tissues (populus deltoidesxnigra dn34) and identified as a member of the genus methylobacterium. phylogenetic analyses showed that strain bj001t is related to methylobacterium thiocyanatum, methylobacterium extorquens, methylobacterium zatmanii and methylobacterium rhodesianum. however, strain bj001t differed from these species in its carbon-source utilization pattern, particularly ... | 2004 | 15280290 |
| [phylogenetic analysis of facultative methylotrophic bacteria of the genus methylobacterium]. | phylogenetic analysis of methylobacterium genus species using analysis of nucleotide sequence of 16s rrna genes has shown that methylobacterium zatmanii and m. rhodesianum possess high-level similarity with m. extorquens (99.4-98.8%), and m. fujisawaense and m. radiotolerans--with m. mesophilicum (98.9-97.8%). these species are also similar as to their phenotypical properties and their total dnas have also close similarity. thus, the right of m. zatmanii, m. rhodesianum, m. fujisawaense and m. r ... | 2004 | 15554292 |
| methylobacterium pseudosasae sp. nov., a pink-pigmented, facultatively methylotrophic bacterium isolated from the bamboo phyllosphere. | a pink-pigmented, gram negative, aerobic, facultatively methylotrophic bacterium, strain bl44(t), was isolated from bamboo leaves and identified as a member of the genus methylobacterium. phylogenetic analysis based on 16s rrna gene sequences showed similarity values of 98.7-97.0 % with closely related type strains and showed highest similarity to methylobacterium zatmanii dsm 5688(t) (98.7 %) and methylobacterium thiocyanatum dsm 11490(t) (98.7 %). methylotrophic metabolism in this strain was c ... | 2014 | 24297603 |
