Conjugative Type 4 Secretion System of a Novel Large Plasmid from the Chemoautotroph Tetrathiobacter kashmirensis and Construction of Shuttle Vectors for Alcaligenaceae
(AMER SOC MICROBIOLOGY, 2009-07-01)Tetrathiobacter spp. and other members of the Alcaligenaceae are metabolically versatile and environmentally significant. A novel, similar to 60-kb conjugative plasmid, pBTK445, from the sulfur chemolithoautotroph ... -
Mesorhizobium thiogangeticum sp nov., a novel sulfur-oxidizing chemolithoautotroph from rhizosphere soil of an Indian tropical leguminous plant
(SOC GENERAL MICROBIOLOGY,, 2006-01)The bacterial strain SJT(T), along with 15 other mesophilic, neutrophilic and facultatively sulfur-oxidizing chemolithotrophic isolates, was isolated by enrichment on reduced sulfur compounds as the sole energy and electron ... -
Origin of the Sox multienzyme complex system in ancient thermophilic bacteria and coevolution of its constituent proteins
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2009-07)The multienzyme complex SoxXABYZ(CD)(2), characteristic of facultatively chemolithotrophic Alphaproteobacteria, oxidizes both sulfone and sulfane sulfur species directly to sulfate, while a truncated SoxXABYZ oxidizes only ... -
Paracoccus bengalensis sp nov., a novel sulfur-oxidizing chemolithoautotroph from the rhizospheric soil of an Indian tropical leguminous plant
(ELSEVIER GMBH, 2006-07)Paracoccus versutus-like isolates from the rhizosphere of Clitoria ternatea, a slender leguminous herb (family Papilionaceae), found ubiquitously in waste places and village forests of the Lower Gangetic plains of India, ... -
The S4-intermediate pathway for the oxidation of thiosulfate by the chemolithoautotroph Tetrathiobacter kashmirensis and inhibition of tetrathionate oxidation by sulfite
(ELSEVIER, 2007-05)Chemolithotrophic oxidation of reduced sulfur compounds was studied in the betaproteobacterium Tetrathiobacter kashmirensis in correlation with its transposon (Tn5-mob)-inserted mutants impaired in sulfur oxidation (Sox(-)) ... -
Tetrathiobacter kashmirensis gen. nov., sp nov., a novel mesophilic, neutrophilic, tetrathionate-oxidizing, facultatively chemolithotrophic betaproteobacterium isolated from soil from a temperate orchard in Jammu and Kashmir, India
(SOC GENERAL MICROBIOLOGY,, 2005-09)Twelve chemolithotrophic strains were isolated from temperate orchard soil on reduced sulfur compounds as energy and electron sources and characterized on the basis of their physiological properties and ability to oxidize ... -
Ubiquitous presence and activity of sulfur-oxidizing lithoautotrophic microorganisms in the rhizospheres of tropical plants
