Nattokinase is a potent fibrinolytic enzyme which was first found in a traditional Japanese soybean food. Two Nattokinase genes were cloned using chromosomal DNA from Bacillus subtilis (Ehrenberg 1835) Cohn 1872. Recombinant Natto-1.3 kb (GenBank accession number KF734090) and Natto-1.1 kb were expressed using a pQE-30 expression vector, and their fibrinolytic activities were studied. Natto-1.3...

Gram positive aerobic or facultatively anaerobic spore forming gram positive bacilli were first identified by Christian Gottfried Ehrenberg in 1885 and were later classified by Ferdinand Cohn in to a separate genus Bacillus [1]. Aerobic spore forming gram positive bacteria are commonly referred to as ASB’s and includes members of Bacillus spp which are basically saprophytes living as thermophil...

Bacillus subtilis (Ehrenburg) Cohn ATCC 49760, deposited as Bacillus globigii, is the source strain for the restriction enzymes BglI and BglII. Its complete sequence and full methylome were determined using single-molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing.

The phytosanitary importance of the corn leafhopper, Dalbulus maidis (De Long and Wolcott) (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) and the planthopper, Delphacodes kuscheli Fennah (Hemiptera: Delphacidae) lies in their ability to transmit phloem-associated plant pathogens, mainly viruses and mollicutes, and to cause considerable mechanical damage to corn plants during feeding and oviposition. Fungi, particul...

due to the high antagonistic activity of bacterium, bacillus subtilis (ehrenberg) cohn, three isolates (b.s.ham, 204 and 202) were selected and their efficacy were studied in control of sugar beetdamping–off caused by rhizoctonia solani , in  in vitro and in vivo conditions.  in dual culture on pda, all isolates of b.subtilis inhibited mycelial growth of r.solani.  significantly, volatile metab...
