Nitrogen compounds utilized by Alcaligenes faecalis.
Conn (1942) observed that Alcaligenes faecalis required organic nitrogen, but as observed by Porter (1946) no report was found of a study of nitrogen compounds suitable for continued growth of A. faecalis. It was reported, however, that this organism grew in a medium containing NH4 lactate as a source of nitrogen and carbon (Braun and Cahn-Bronner, 1921), and used NH4NO3, asparagine, cysteine, ...
متن کاملPhenanthrene-degrading phenotype of Alcaligenes faecalis AFK2.
A phenanthrene-degrading bacterium that assimilated a wide range of organic compounds was isolated from a soil sample and identified as Alcaligenes faecalis strain AFK2. The strain degraded phenanthrene through protocatechuate, but did not utilize naphthalene. The phenanthrene-degrading phenotype (Phn+) of AFK2 disappeared after 20 successive subcultures in a mineral salts medium containing o-p...
متن کاملPyruvic oxime dioxygenase from heterotrophic nitrifier Alcaligenes faecalis is a nonheme Fe(II)-dependent enzyme homologous to class II aldolase
Pyruvic oxime dioxygenase (POD), a key enzyme in heterotrophic nitrification, was purified from Alcaligenes faecalis, and the molecular and catalytic characteristics were reexamined. POD was purified as the homotetramer of the subunit whose molecular weight was 30,000. The deduced amino acid sequence of POD was homologous with a class II aldolase that has been regarded as the Zn(II)-dependent e...
متن کاملAntimicrobial Activity of an Alcaligenes faecalis Strain Isolated from Oil Contaminated Soil
Abstract Background and Objective: The bacteria living in the specific ecological conditions are among the most promising antimicrobial producers. This study aimed at isolating antimicrobial producing bacteria from soils contaminated with crude oil. Material and Methods: the samples were obtained from crude oil contaminated soils around Dezful located in Khuzestan province, Iran, and antimicrob...
متن کاملD-erythrose metabolism in a strain of Alcaligenes faecalis.
Except for the oxidation of erythritol to L-erythrulose by Acetobacter (Bertrand, 1900) little is known of the metabolism of tetroses in microorganisms. Barker and Lipmann (1949) found erythritol to be esterified and oxidized by Propionibacterium pentosaceum, although a tetrose intermediate was not identified. The utilization of D-erythrose by mammalian liver slices has been reported by Abraham...
