Mycosubtilin overproduction by Bacillus subtilis BBG100 enhances the organism's antagonistic and biocontrol activities
Article Abstract:
The native promoter of the mycosubtilin operon from Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6633 was replaced by the repU a constitutive promoter from staphylococcus aureus plasmid pUB110. It showed that the protective effect afforded by mycosubtilin overproduction was visualized by significantly greater fresh weight of emerging seedlings treated with BBG100 compared to controls or seedlings inoculated with the wild-type strain.

Cyclohexane carboxylate and benzoate formation from crotonate in Syntrophus aciditrophicus
Article Abstract:
The study results of gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and [super 13]C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy ([super 13]C-NMR) to elucidate the pathway to crotonate oxidation and cyclohexane carboxylate formation in Syntrophus aciditrophicus are reported.
