| 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 |
| complete genome sequence of methylobacterium populi p-1m, isolated from pink-pigmented household biofilm. | methylobacterium populi p-1m is isolated from the pink-pigmented household biofilm. here, we present the complete genome sequence of p-1m, consisting of one chromosome of 5,705,640 bp and five plasmids of 64,864 bp, 59,879 bp, 42,569 bp, 41,417 bp, and 29,506 bp. | 2016 | 27313289 |
| mixed regiospecificity compromises alkene synthesis by a cytochrome p450 peroxygenase from methylobacterium populi. | intensive interest has focused on enzymes that are capable of synthesizing hydrocarbons, alkenes and alkanes, for sustainable fuel production. a recently described cytochrome p450 (oletje) from the cyp152 family catalyzes an unusual carbon-carbon scission reaction, transforming cn fatty acids to cn-1 1-alkenes. here, we show that a second cyp152, cyp-mp from methylobacterium populi atcc baa 705, also catalyzes oxidative substrate decarboxylation. alkene production is accompanied with the product ... | 2016 | 26965726 |
| methylobacterium populi vp2: plant growth-promoting bacterium isolated from a highly polluted environment for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (pah) biodegradation. | the use of microorganisms to accelerate the natural detoxification processes of toxic substances in the soil represents an alternative ecofriendly and low-cost method of environmental remediation compared to harmful incineration and chemical treatments. fourteen strains able to grow on minimal selective medium with a complex mixture of different classes of xenobiotic compounds as the sole carbon source were isolated from the soil of the ex-industrial site acna (aziende chimiche nazionali associa ... | 2014 | 25152928 |
