چکیده

Here, we present the shotgun genome sequence of the purple photosynthetic bacterium Rhodospirillum photometricum DSM122. The photosynthetic apparatus of this bacterium has been particularly well studied by microscopy. The knowledge of the genome of this oversize bacterium will allow us to compare it with the other purple bacterial organisms to follow the evolution of the photosynthetic apparatus.

Draft genome sequence of the purple photosynthetic bacterium Phaeospirillum molischianum DSM120, a particularly versatile bacterium.

Here we present the draft genome sequence of the versatile and adaptable purple photosynthetic bacterium Phaeospirillum molischianum DSM120. This study advances the understanding of the adaptability of this bacterium, as well as the differences between the Phaeospirillum and Rhodospirillum genera.

Amino Acid Sequence of Cytochrome c’ from the Purple Photosynthetic Bacterium Rhodospirillum rubrum Sl*

The amino acid sequence of cytochrome c’ from the purple photosynthetic bacterium Rhodospirillum rubrum Sl has been determined and is consistent with homology to cytochrome c’ from the nonphotosynthetic bacterium Alcaligenes sp. NCIB 11015. There is 29% identity in the chosen alignment of these two proteins. R. rubrum cytochrome c’ is composed of a single peptide chain of 126 amino acid residue...

Reclassification of Rhodospirillum photometricum Molisch 1907, Rhodospirillum sulfurexigens Anil Kumar et al. 2008 and Rhodospirillum oryzae Lakshmi et al. 2013 in a new genus, Pararhodospirillum gen. nov., as Pararhodospirillum photometricum comb. nov., Pararhodospirillum sulfurexigens comb. nov. and Pararhodospirillum oryzae comb. nov., respectively, and emended description of the genus Rhodospirillum.

The genus Rhodospirillum is represented by four species, with three of them showing phylogenetic divergence compared to the type species, Rhodospirillum rubrum. Differences in the major diagnostic properties such as internal photosynthetic membranes, quinones, fatty acids, carotenoid composition and a few other phenotypic properties warrant the reclassification of members of this genus. Resulta...

Primary structure of a high potential, four-iron-sulfur ferredoxin from the photosynthetic bacterium Rhodospirillum tenue.

The amino acid sequence of a high oxidation-reduction potential iron-sulfur protein (HiPIP) isolated from the purple photosynthetic bacterium Rhodospirillum tenue has been determined. This is the smallest of the HiPIP's, containing 63 residues, with only 3 residues apparently conserved in addition to the 4 cluster-binding cysteines. A minimum of four internal genetic gaps is postulated to align...
