| a proposal to transfer microbispora bispora (lechevalier 1965) to a new genus, thermobispora gen. nov., as thermobispora bispora comb. nov. | we determined almost complete 16s rrna gene sequences of two microbispora bispora (lechevalier 1965) strains, atcc 19993t (t = type strain) and jcm 3082. the two sequences were 99% similar to each other but exhibited only 81 to 87.8% similarity with the 16s rrna gene sequences of seven other microbispora strains. a phylogenetic analysis revealed that the two sequences clustered not only distantly from other microbispora strains, but also outside the cluster containing members of the family strep ... | 1996 | 8863419 |
| the actinomycete thermobispora bispora contains two distinct types of transcriptionally active 16s rrna genes. | here we present the first description of the presence of two distinct types of 16s rrna genes in the genome of a (eu)bacterium, thermobispora bispora. we cloned and determined the nucleotide sequences of all four rrna operons of t. bispora. sequence comparisons revealed that the genome of t. bispora contains two distinct types of 16s rrna genes, each type consisting of two identical or nearly identical copies, and three identical copies of the 23s rna gene. the nucleotide sequences of the two ty ... | 1997 | 9150223 |
| distinct types of rrna operons exist in the genome of the actinomycete thermomonospora chromogena and evidence for horizontal transfer of an entire rrna operon. | we describe here the presence of two distinct types of rrna operons in the genome of a thermophilic actinomycete thermomonospora chromogena. the genome of t. chromogena contains six rrna operons (rrn), of which four complete and two incomplete ones were cloned and sequenced. comparative analysis revealed that the operon rrnb exhibits high levels of sequence variations to the other five nearly identical ones throughout the entire length of the operon. the coding sequences for the 16s and 23s rrna ... | 1999 | 10464188 |
| effects of differing temperature management on development of actinobacteria populations during composting. | actinobacteria are believed to play a major role in organic matter degradation and humification processes in composts. in this study, the effects of different temperature regimes on the succession of actinobacteria populations during composting were investigated in a laboratory reactor. phospholipid fatty acid (plfa) was used to investigate quantitative changes in the overall microbial biomass and community structure, and in the size of actinobacteria populations. qualitative changes were determ ... | 2007 | 17683913 |
| complete genome sequence of thermobispora bispora type strain (r51). | thermobispora bispora (henssen 1957) wang et al. 1996 is the type species of the genus thermobispora. this genus is of great interest because it is strictly thermophilic and because it has been shown for several of its members that the genome contains substantially distinct (6.4% sequence difference) and transcriptionally active 16s rrna genes. here we describe the features of this organism, together with the complete genome sequence and annotation. this is the second completed genome sequence o ... | 2010 | 21304716 |
