Rhodococcus opacus strain PD630 as a new source of high-value single-cell oil? isolation and characterization of triacylglycerols and other storage lipids

Article Abstract:

Rhodococcus opacus strain PD630 may be a new source of high-value single-cell oil. To find our more about its usefulness, isolation and characterization of triacylglycerols and other storage lipids have been carried out. R opacus PD630 was different from other plants in that it accumulated only the shorter and saturated fatty acids at a given position.

Identification of a new class of biopolymer: bacterial synthesis of a sulfur-containing polymer with thioester linkages

Article Abstract:

Bacterial synthesis of a sulfur-containing polymer with thioester linkage is discussed in connection to identification of a new class of biopolymer, an eighth class, polythioesters. Finding the novel biopolymer, synthesized by the Gram-negative Ralstonica eutropha, reveals a new quality related to substrate range of polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) synthases and their ability to synthesize technically interesting polymers. R. eutropha, 3-mercaptopropionic acid, and 3,3'-thiodipropionic acid are discussed.

Statistical Data Included, Identification and classification, Biopolymers, Polyesters

Identification and application of plasmids suitable for transfer of foreign DNA to members of the genus Gordonia

Article Abstract:

The authors have investigated the genus Gordonia. The identification of the plasmids transferred to Gordonia and other species of this genus via the conjugational electroporation has been carried out, and the details are discussed.
