Stimulation of expression of a silica-induced protein (Sip) in Thermus thermophilus by supersaturated silicic acid.
The effects of silicic acid on the growth of Thermus thermophilus TMY, an extreme thermophile isolated from a siliceous deposit formed from geothermal water at a geothermal power plant in Japan, were examined at 75 degrees C. At concentrations higher than the solubility of amorphous silica (400 to 700 ppm SiO(2)), a silica-induced protein (Sip) was isolated from the cell envelope fraction of lo...
متن کاملArsenite oxidation and arsenate respiration by a new Thermus isolate.
A new microbial strain was isolated from an arsenic-rich terrestrial geothermal environment. The isolate, designated HR13, was identified as a Thermus species based on 16S rDNA phylogenetic relationships and close sequence similarity within the Thermus genus. Under aerobic conditions, Thermus HR13 was capable of rapidly oxidizing inorganic As(III) to As(V). As(III) was oxidized at a rate approx...

Production and hosting by Abstract The Rehai Geothermal Field, located in Tengchong County, in central-western Yunnan Province, is the largest and most intensively studied geothermal field in China. Awide physicochemical diversity of springs (ambient to w97 C; pH from 1.8 to 9.3) provides a multitude of niches for extremophilic microorganisms. A variety of studies have focused on the cultivatio...
متن کاملGenome Sequence of Thermus thermophilus ATCC 33923, a Thermostable Trehalose-Producing Strain
Thermus thermophilus ATCC 33923 contains a thermostable enzyme that can efficiently catalyze the conversion of maltose into trehalose. Here we report a 2.15-Mb assembly of its genome sequence and other useful information, including the coding sequences (CDS) responsible for biological processes such as DNA replication, DNA repair, and RNA maturation.
