Rhodococcus fascians, a phytopathogen that alters plant development, inflicts significant losses in plant production around the world. We report here the complete genome sequence of R. fascians D188, a well-characterized model isolate, and Rhodococcus species PBTS (pistachio bushy top syndrome) 1 and 2, which were shown to be responsible for a disease outbreak in pistachios.

tiydroxylation of monacolin L to monacolin J by M. ruberlt8). The present communication deals with the transformation of monacolin J to monacolin K by a cell-free extract of M. ruber and by living cells of Paecilomyces viridis. The latter fungus is known to produce compactin (ML-236B) analogs, another family of HMG-CoAreductase inhibitors6). M. ruber M4681 was grown aerobically in a medium cont...

In August 2014, a large sinkhole with width of 2.5m, depth 5m, and length 8m was discovered in Seoul followed by an additional 5-8m, 4-5m, 70m the center Seokchon underground driveway

A novel actinobacterial strain, MBRL 353(T), was isolated from a sample collected from a limestone quarry at Hundung, Manipur, India. Comparison of 16S rRNA gene sequences of strain MBRL 353(T) and other members of the genus Rhodococcus showed sequence similarities ranging from 95.5 to 98.2 %, with strain MBRL 353(T) showing closest sequence similarity to Rhodococcus triatomae IMMIB RIV-085(T) ...

Our mouth is the mirror of our health and it might be said that numerous diseases which affect our organism may be manifested in the mouth. Early symptoms occurring within the oral cavity may emerge with diseases related to our blood system, gastrointestinal system, renal system, cardiovascular system, and mental system. They are manifested as a hyperkeratosis, which may have an erithematous ba...

Protaminobacter ruber was cultured in a medium containing [57Co]cyanocobalamin with a "two-step cultivation method" and the forms of vitamin B12 compounds in the cells were examined. Methylcobalamin was detected in the early phases of growth and reached a maximum of about 40% of all cobalamins extracted from the cells. In the stationary phase of growth, almost all cobalamins consisted of adenos...
