| shinella yambaruensis sp. nov., a 3-methyl-sulfolane-assimilating bacterium isolated from soil. | a bacterial strain, designated ms4(t), was isolated from soil in the ryukyu archipelago, japan. the bacterium grew with 3-methyl sulfolane as sole sulfur source. phylogenetic analysis based on 16s rrna gene sequences suggested that strain ms4(t) belonged to the genus shinella; it was closely related to the type strains of shinella granuli and shinella zoogloeoides (16s rrna gene sequence similarities of 98.2 and 96.7 %, respectively). strain ms4(t) was a gram-negative, non-motile, rod-shaped, ae ... | 2009 | 19244436 |
| aerobic degradation of pyridine by a new bacterial strain, shinella zoogloeoides bc026. | a new bacterial strain, shinella zoogloeoides bc026, which utilizes pyridine as its sole carbon, nitrogen and energy source, was isolated from the activated sludge of a coking wastewater treatment plant. the bc026 strain completely degraded up to 1,806 mg/l of pyridine in 45.5 h. the optimum degradation conditions were ph 8.0 and temperature 30-35 degrees c. according to product monitoring and genetic analysis, the pyridine ring was cleaved between c(2) and n, resulting in 58% of pyridine-n bein ... | 2009 | 19669816 |
| [study on the function of plasmid in pyridine-degrading bacteria]. | in order to identify the characteristics of the plasmids of degrading bacterial strains and the relationship between the plasmids' function and biodegradation, plasmids were isolated from two bacterial strains (paracoccus sp. bw001 and shinella zoogloeoides bc026) and pulse-field gel electrophoresis was used to identify the distribution of plasmids and their molecular size. two large plasmids with 190-245 kb and one small plasmid with 4.5-5.0 kb were found in the bw001, and at least 3 large plas ... | 2010 | 20825045 |
| isolation and identification of cellulolytic bacteria from the gut of holotrichia parallela larvae (coleoptera: scarabaeidae). | in this study, 207 strains of aerobic and facultatively anaerobic cellulolytic bacteria were isolated from the gut of holotrichia parallela larvae. these bacterial isolates were assigned to 21 genotypes by amplified ribosomal dna restriction analysis (ardra). a partial 16s rdna sequence analysis and standard biochemical and physiological tests were used for the assignment of the 21 representative isolates. our results show that the cellulolytic bacterial community is dominated by the proteobacte ... | 2012 | 22489111 |
