| phosphoenolpyruvate:sugar phosphotransferase system in ancalomicrobium adetum. | ancalomicrobium adetum possesses a membrane-associated phosphoenolpyruvate:sugar phosphotransferase system, the components of which exhibited enzymatic cross-reactivity with those from salmonella typhimurium. | 1977 | 328495 |
| prosthecomicrobium and ancalomicrobium: new prosthecate freshwater bacteria. | direct microscopic examination of natural freshwater samples reveals a variety of small microorganisms having elaborate cellular appendages. several strains have been isolated from crude cultures containing low concentrations of organic nutrients. all of the isolates are procaryotic. they are aerobic chemoorganotrophs that require vitamins for growth. because they cannot be assigned to any of the existing bacterial genera, two new genera are proposed: ancalomicrobium for organisms which have sev ... | 1968 | 4870285 |
| incidence of prosthecate bacteria in a polluted stream. | water samples were collected aseptically several times throughout the year at nine stations on the red cedar river, a stream flowing through farmland and receiving effluent from several municipalities in central michigan. total prosthecate bacteria were enumerated by both direct and viable counting techniques. by direct techniques, these bacteria accounted for 0.62 to 1.1% of the total microflora during the study. the predominant type of appendaged bacteria was the caulobacters (caulobacter, ast ... | 1971 | 4943266 |
| deoxyribonucleic acid base sequence homologies of some budding and prosthecate bacteria. | the genetic relatedness of a number of budding and prosthecate bacteria was determined by deoxyribonucleic acid (dna) homology experiments of the direct binding type. strains of hyphomicrobium sp. isolated from aquatic habitats were found to have relatedness values ranging from 9 to 70% with strain "ea-617," a subculture of the hyphomicrobium isolated by mevius from river water. strains obtained from soil enrichments had lower values with ea-617, ranging from 3 to 5%. very little or no homology ... | 1972 | 5018022 |
| high numbers of prosthecate bacteria in pulp mill waste aeration lagoons. | prosthecate bacteria comprised 0.6 to 10.5% of the bacterial community in samples from 11 pulp mill waste aeration lagoons. because of their distinct morphology, the genera ancalomicrobium, caulobacter, prosthecobacter, prosthecomicrobium, stella, and hyphomicrobium or hyphomonas could be identified and enumerated by direct microscopic examination. monthly samples from one lagoon showed that several genera varied from undetectable to predominant among the appendaged organisms. temperature (seaso ... | 1979 | 16345371 |
