Pelobacter acidigallici | |
Pelobacter acidigallici is the type species in the bacterial genus Pelobacter .
P. acidigallici is able to degrade trihydroxybenzenes. [1] The enzyme pyrogallol hydroxytransferase uses 1,2,3,5-tetrahydroxybenzene and 1,2,3-trihydroxybenzene (pyrogallol), whereas its two products are 1,3,5-trihydroxybenzene (phloroglucinol) and 1,2,3,5-tetrahydroxybenzene. This enzyme can be found in P. acidigallici. [2]
In bacteriology, gram-positive bacteria are bacteria that give a positive result in the Gram stain test, which is traditionally used to quickly classify bacteria into two broad categories according to their type of cell wall.
A restriction enzyme, restriction endonuclease, or restrictase is an enzyme that cleaves DNA into fragments at or near specific recognition sites within molecules known as restriction sites. Restriction enzymes are one class of the broader endonuclease group of enzymes. Restriction enzymes are commonly classified into five types, which differ in their structure and whether they cut their DNA substrate at their recognition site, or if the recognition and cleavage sites are separate from one another. To cut DNA, all restriction enzymes make two incisions, once through each sugar-phosphate backbone of the DNA double helix.
Gallic acid (also known as 3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoic acid) is a trihydroxybenzoic acid with the formula C6H2(OH)3CO2H. It is classified as a phenolic acid. It is found in gallnuts, sumac, witch hazel, tea leaves, oak bark, and other plants. It is a white solid, although samples are typically brown owing to partial oxidation. Salts and esters of gallic acid are termed "gallates".
Pyrogallol is an organic compound with the formula C6H3(OH)3. It is a white, water-soluble solid although samples are typically brownish because of its sensitivity toward oxygen. It is one of three isomeric benzenetriols.
Translocase is a general term for a protein that assists in moving another molecule, usually across a cell membrane. These enzymes catalyze the movement of ions or molecules across membranes or their separation within membranes. The reaction is designated as a transfer from “side 1” to “side 2” because the designations “in” and “out”, which had previously been used, can be ambiguous. Translocases are the most common secretion system in Gram positive bacteria.
In enzymology, a pyrogallol hydroxytransferase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
In enzymology, a pyrogallol 1,2-oxygenase (EC 1.13.11.35) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
In enzymology, a 2-hydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone reductase (EC 1.6.5.7) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
In enzymology, a gallate decarboxylase (EC 4.1.1.59) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
Glycine—tRNA ligase also known as glycyl–tRNA synthetase is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the GARS1 gene.
Acetylene hydratase (AH) is a bacterial enzyme, originally discovered in the anaerobic microorganism Pelobactor acetylenicus, that catalyzes the non-redox hydration of acetylene to form acetaldehyde.
The trihydroxybenzenes (or benzenetriols) are organic compounds with the formula C6H3(OH)3. Also classified as polyphenols, they feature three hydroxyl groups substituted onto a benzene ring. They are white solids with modest solubility in water.
1,2,3,5-Tetrahydroxybenzene is a benzenetetrol.
Tetrahydroxybenzenes or Benzenetetrols are a group of organic compounds which are tetrahydroxy derivatives of benzene. Tetrahydroxybenzene comes in three isomers:
Eubacterium oxidoreducens is a Gram positive bacterium species in the genus Eubacterium.
Pelobacter venetianus is a species of bacteria that degrade polyethylene glycol. It is strictly anaerobic, Gram-negative, and nonspore-forming.
Pelobacter carbinolicus is a species of bacteria that ferments 2,3-butanediol and acetoin. It is Gram-negative, strictly anaerobic and non-spore-forming. Gra Bd 1 is the type strain. Its genome has been sequenced.
Pelobacter propionicus is a species of bacteria that ferments 2,3-butanediol and acetoin. It is Gram-negative, strictly anaerobic and non-spore-forming. Ott Bd 1 is the type strain.
Pelobacter acetylenicus is a strictly anaerobic Gram-negative rod-shaped non-sporeforming bacterium of the genus Pelobacter. It was isolated from marine and freshwater sediments and can use acetylene (ethyne) as sole source of carbon and energy.
A pyrogallolarene is a macrocycle, or a cyclic oligomer, based on the condensation of pyrogallol (1,2,3-trihydroxybenzene) and an aldehyde. Pyrogallolarenes are a type of calixarene, and a subset of resorcinarenes that are substituted with a hydroxyl at the 2-position.
