| a novel esterase subfamily with α/β-hydrolase fold suggested by structures of two bacterial enzymes homologous to l-homoserine o-acetyl transferases. | mekb from pseudomonas veronii and cghle from corynebacteriumglutamicum belong to the superfamily of α/β-hydrolase fold proteins. based on sequence comparisons, they are annotated as homoserine transacetylases in popular databases like uniprot, pfam or esther. however, experimentally, mekb and cghle were shown to be esterases that hydrolyse preferentially acetic acid esters. we describe the x-ray structures of these enzymes solved to high resolution. the overall structures confirm the close relat ... | 2016 | 26787467 |
| long-term salinity tolerance is accompanied by major restructuring of the coral bacterial microbiome. | scleractinian corals are assumed to be stenohaline osmoconformers, although they are frequently subjected to variations in seawater salinity due to precipitation, freshwater run-off and other processes. observed responses to altered salinity levels include differences in photosynthetic performance, respiration and increased bleaching and mortality of the coral host and its algal symbiont, but a study looking at bacterial community changes is lacking. here, we exposed the coral fungia granulosa t ... | 2016 | 26840035 |
| engineering of corynebacterium glutamicum to utilize methyl acetate, a potential feedstock derived by carbonylation of methanol with co. | the possibilities to utilize one-carbon substrates (c1) like co, methane and methanol have been explored as a cheap alternative feedstock in the biotechnology. for the first time, methyl acetate (meoac), which can be formed from carbonylation of methanol with co, was demonstrated to be an alternative carbon source for the cell growth of corynebacterium glutamicum as a model microbial cell factory. to do so, a carboxyl esterase activity was necessary to hydrolyze meoac to methanol and acetate. al ... | 2016 | 26970052 |
| production of a bioflocculant from pseudomonas veronii l918 using the hydrolyzate of peanut hull and its application in the treatment of ash-flushing wastewater generated from coal fired power plant. | in this study, bioflocculant produced by pseudomonas veronii l918 was applied to treat ash-flushing wastewater. the strain l918 could convert the hydrolyzate of peanut hull into bioflocculant, which can effectively reduce the production cost of bioflocculant. the yield of 3.39g/l bioflocculant mbf-l918 was achieved when 300ml/l peanut hull hydrolyzate was used as carbon source. the bioflocculant mbf-l918 contains 77.14% polysaccharides and 4.84% proteins, and the molecular weight (mw) of mbf-l91 ... | 2016 | 27372012 |
| a draft genome sequence of pseudomonas veronii r4: a grapevine (vitis vinifera l.) root-associated strain with high biocontrol potential. | a new plant commensal pseudomonas veronii isolate (strain r4) was identified from a xiphinema index biocontrol screen. isolated from grapevine roots from vineyards in central chile, the strain r4 exhibited a slower yet equivalently effective nematicide activity as the well-characterized p. protegens cha0. whole genome sequencing of strain r4 and comparative analysis among the available pseudomonas spp. genomes allowed for the identification of gene clusters that encode putative extracellular pro ... | 2016 | 27777646 |
| the genome of the toluene-degrading pseudomonas veronii strain 1ydbtex2 and its differential gene expression in contaminated sand. | the natural restoration of soils polluted by aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and m- and p-xylene (btex) may be accelerated by inoculation of specific biodegraders (bioaugmentation). bioaugmentation mainly involves introducing bacteria that deploy their metabolic properties and adaptation potential to survive and propagate in the contaminated environment by degrading the pollutant. in order to better understand the adaptive response of cells during a transition to con ... | 2016 | 27812150 |
| candidate nematicidal proteins in a new pseudomonas veronii isolate identified by its antagonistic properties against xiphinema index. | the nematode xiphinema index affects grape vines and transmits important viruses associated with fanleaf degeneration. pseudomonas spp. are an extensive bacterial group in which important biodegradation and/or biocontrol properties can occur for several strains in the group. the aim of this study was to identify new pseudomonas isolates with antagonist activity against x. index. forty bacterial isolates were obtained from soil and root samples from chilean vineyards. thirteen new fluorescent pse ... | 2017 | 27989999 |
| ancient bacteria of the ötzi's microbiome: a genomic tale from the copper age. | ancient microbiota information represents an important resource to evaluate bacterial evolution and to explore the biological spread of infectious diseases in history. the soft tissue of frozen mummified humans, such as the tyrolean iceman, has been shown to contain bacterial dna that is suitable for population profiling of the prehistoric bacteria that colonized such ancient human hosts. | 2017 | 28095919 |
| pseudomonas lactis sp. nov. and pseudomonas paralactis sp. nov., isolated from bovine raw milk. | five strains, designated ws 4672t, ws 4998, ws 4992t, ws 4997, and ws 5000, isolated from bovine raw milk formed two individual groups in a phylogenetic analysis. the most similar species on the basis of 16s rrna gene sequences were pseudomonas azotoformans iam 1603t, pseudomonas gessardii cip 105469t, and pseudomonas libanensis cip 105460t showing 99.7-99.6 % similarity. using rpod gene sequences pseudomonas veronii lmg 17761t (93.3 %) was most closely related to strain ws 4672t and pseudomonas ... | 2017 | 28141500 |

| long-chain alkyl cyanides: unprecedented volatile compounds released by pseudomonas and micromonospora bacteria. | the analysis of volatiles from bacterial cultures revealed long-chain aliphatic nitriles, a new class of natural products. such nitriles are produced by both gram-positive micromonospora echinospora and gram-negative pseudomonas veronii bacteria, although the structures differ. a variable sequence of chain elongation and dehydration in the fatty acid biosynthesis leads to either unbranched saturated or unsaturated nitriles with an ω-7 double bond, such as (z)-11-octadecenenitrile, or methyl-bran ... | 2017 | 28276609 |
| effect of phosphorus addition on the reductive transformation of pentachlorophenol (pcp) and iron reduction with microorganism involvement. | the transformation of phosphorus added to the soil environment has been proven to be influenced by the fe biochemical process, which thereby may affect the transformation of organic chlorinated contaminants. however, the amount of related literatures regarding this topic is limited. this study aimed to determine the effects of phosphorus addition on pentachlorophenol (pcp) anaerobic transformation, iron reduction, and paddy soil microbial community structure. results showed that the transformati ... | 2017 | 28444568 |
