Metabolism of various carbon sources by Azospirillum brasilense.
Azospirillum brasilense Sp7 and two mutants were examined for 19 carbon metabolism enzymes. The results indicate that this nitrogen fixer uses the Entner-Doudoroff pathway for gluconate dissimilation, lacks a catabolic but has an anabolic Embden-Meyerhof-Parnas hexosephosphate pathway, has amphibolic triosephosphate enzymes, lacks a hexose monophosphate shunt, and has lactate dehydrogenase, mal...
متن کاملIntermediary carbon metabolism of Azospirillum brasilense.
Azospirillum brasilense Sp 7 grew rapidly in AZO medium containing reduced nitrogen and succinate as an energy source, with a doubling time of 43 min. No growth was measured with glucose as the sole carbon source. In contrast, Azospirillum lipoferum Sp 59b could grow in media containing either succinate or glucose with a doubling time of 69 min and 223 min, respectively. Warburg-Barcroft respir...
متن کاملAn energy taxis transducer promotes root colonization by Azospirillum brasilense.
Motility responses triggered by changes in the electron transport system are collectively known as energy taxis. In Azospirillum brasilense, energy taxis was shown to be the principal form of locomotor control. In the present study, we have identified a novel chemoreceptor-like protein, named Tlp1, which serves as an energy taxis transducer. The Tlp1 protein is predicted to have an N-terminal p...
متن کاملRegulation of nitrogenase activity by oxygen in Azospirillum brasilense and Azospirillum lipoferum.
The nitrogenase activity of the microaerophilic bacteria Azospirillum brasilense and A. lipoferum was completely inhibited by 2.0 kPa of oxygen (approximately 0.02 atm of O2) in equilibrium with the solution. The activity could be partially recovered at optimal oxygen concentrations of 0.2 kPa. In contrast to the NH4+ switch off, no covalent modification of the nitrogenase reductase (Fe protein...
متن کاملRoot-surface colonization of black mangrove seedlings by Azospirillum halopraeferens and Azospirillum brasilense in seawater
Inoculation of axenic black mangrove seedlings in seawater for 8 days with either the terrestrial halotolerant plant growthpromoting bacterium Azospirillum halopraeferens or with Azospirillum brasilense produced heavy colonization of the root surface. The colonization pattern was different for the two strains. A. halopraeferens yielded mainly single cells embedded in a thick sheath, whereas A. ...
