چکیده

Bacillus coagulans has been found to produce several surfactins that are powerful lipopeptide surfactants. Four main components with molecular weights 1007, 1021 and 1035 Da were separated. Their structures have been confirmed by spectrometric and spectroscopic studies and by acid hydrolysis. The compounds were found to represent two pairs of surfactin isoforms in which beta-hydroxy-iso-C14 or anteiso-C15 fatty acids are linked to the [Leu7] or [Val7] heptapeptide moiety by both an amide group and a lactone bond.

Functional Analysis of the ComK Protein of Bacillus coagulans

The genes for DNA uptake and recombination in Bacilli are commonly regulated by the transcriptional factor ComK. We have identified a ComK homologue in Bacillus coagulans, an industrial relevant organism that is recalcitrant for transformation. Introduction of B. coagulans comK gene under its own promoter region into Bacillus subtilis comK strain results in low transcriptional induction of the ...

Genome sequence of the thermophile Bacillus coagulans Hammer, the type strain of the species.

Here we announce a 3.0-Mb assembly of the Bacillus coagulans Hammer strain, which is the type strain of the species within the genus Bacillus. Genomic analyses based on the sequence may provide insights into the phylogeny of the species and help to elucidate characteristics of the poorly studied strains of Bacillus coagulans.

Lactic Acid Production from Pretreated Hydrolysates of Corn Stover by a Newly Developed Bacillus coagulans Strain

An inhibitor-tolerance strain, Bacillus coagulans GKN316, was developed through atmospheric and room temperature plasma (ARTP) mutation and evolution experiment in condensed dilute-acid hydrolysate (CDH) of corn stover. The fermentabilities of other hydrolysates with B. coagulans GKN316 and the parental strain B. coagulans NL01 were assessed. When using condensed acid-catalyzed steam-exploded h...

Enhanced Production of Surfactin by Bacillus subtilis E8 Mutant Obtained by Ion Beam Implantation

The application of surfactin is hampered by its high production cost. In this study, a high-producing surfactin mutant obtained by ion beam implantation, Bacillus subtilis E8, has been used to produce surfactin. The production in a modified bioreactor and the properties of the surfactin produced by the mutant strain have been investigated. The results indicate that the modified bioreactor with ...
