Pseudomonas oleovorans hydroxylation-epoxidation system: additional strain improvements.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The isolation and characterization of a strain of Pseudomonas oleovorans which epoxidates 1-octene at a rate nine times that of the original strain are described. In addition, it has been confirmed that a greater amount of the mono-epoxide product is formed from 1,7-octadiene than is formed from 1-octene. 1,7-octadiene will not support growth, but will induce the enzymes required for epoxidation.

Characterization of the omega-hydroxylase of Pseudomonas oleovorans as a nonheme iron protein.
The w-hydroxylase of Pseudomonas oleovoruns, which catalyzes the hydroxylation of fatty acids and alkanes and the epoxidation of alkenes in the presence of a reduced pyridine nucleotide, a reductase, rubredoxin, and molecular oxygen, has been purified to electrophoretic homogeneity. Octane hydroxylation and octadiene epoxidation activities appear to remain at a constant ratio during the purific...
متن کاملPreparation and properties of immobilized rubredoxin.
Rubredoxin, one of the three protein components of the epoxidation/hydroxylation system of Pseudomonas oleovorans was immobilized by attachment to CNBr-activated agarose (Sepharose 4B). Since this represents the first reported example of the preparation of a water-insoluble derivative of an enzyme of this type, the electron transfer and physical properties of the conjugate were examined in orde...
متن کاملReduction of alkyl hydroperoxides to alcohols: role of rubredoxin, an electron carrier in the bacterial hydroxylation of hydrocarbons.
Alkyl hydroperoxides are reduced to alcohols in the presence of DPNH and homogeneous rubredoxin and rubredoxin-DPN reductase from Pseudomonas oleovorans. The reaction does not occur when TPNH is substituted for DPNH or when rubredoxins from anaerobic bacteria are substituted for the P. oleovorans nonheme iron protein. The reaction appears to have broad substrate specificity; 1-octyl, 2-octyl, c...
متن کاملPolymerase C1 levels and poly(R-3-hydroxyalkanoate) synthesis in wild-type and recombinant Pseudomonas strains.
A functional antibody highly specific for polymerase C1 of Pseudomonas oleovorans GPo1 was raised and used to determine polymerase C1 levels in in vivo experiments. The polymerase C1 antibodies did not show a cross-reaction with polymerase C2 of P. oleovorans. In wild-type P. oleovorans GPo1 and Pseudomonas putida KT2442, amounts of 0.075 and 0.06% polymerase relative to total protein, respecti...

Efforts to control viral diseases in crop production include several types of physical or chemical treatments; antiviral extracts of a number of plants have also been examined to inhibit plant viral infection. However, treatments utilizing naturally selected microorganisms with activity against plant viruses are poorly documented. Here we report isolation of a soil inhabiting bacterium, Pseudom...
