Plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) play a role in stimulating plant growth through mechanisms such as the synthesis of the phytohormone indole-3-acetic acid (IAA). The aims of this study were the characterization of IAA synthesis and degradation by the model aromatic-degrading bacterium Parab...
Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) and poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) polymers are accumulated by diverse prokaryotes. Their distinct monomer compositions enable their use as tailored bioplastics. The aims were to characterize the poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) and poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyval...
Flavodoxins are small electron transfer proteins containing flavin mononucleotide (FMN) as a prosthetic group, which play an important role during oxidative stress or iron limitation. The aims of this study were the identification and characterization of flavodoxins in the model aromatic-degrader Pa...
Experiments were conducted to measure biodegradation of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congeners contained in mixture Aroclor 1248 and congeners present in wastewater lagoon sediment contaminated decades earlier at Altavista, Virginia. A well-characterized strain of aerobic PCB-degrading bacteria, P...
Airborne PCB emissions from contaminated sediments pose a public health risk and are frequently cited as a concern for communities located near PCB-contaminated bodies of water. We assessed the potential to decrease the emissions of lower-chlorinated (LC)-PCBs (<3 chlorines) through bioaugmentation ...
Paraburkholderia xenovorans LB400 Genome sequencing
A novel bacterium, designated strain Msb3T, was recently isolated from leaves of the yam family plant Dioscorea bulbifera (Dioscoreaceae). Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence indicated that this strain belonged to the genus Paraburkholderia with ...
Bacterial aromatic degradation may cause oxidative stress. The long-chain flavodoxin FldX1 of Paraburkholderia xenovorans LB400 counteracts reactive oxygen species (ROS). The aim of this study was to evaluate the protective role of FldX1 in P. xenovorans LB400 during the degradation of 4-hydroxyphen...

Background

Bacterial aromatic degradation may cause oxidative stress. The long-chain flavodoxin FldX1 of Paraburkholderia xenovorans LB400 counteracts reactive oxygen species (ROS). The aim of this study was to evaluate the protective role of FldX1 in P. xenovorans LB400 during the degradati...

Introduction

Flavonoids are among the main plant root exudation components, and, in addition to their role in symbiosis, they can broadly affect the functionality of plant-associated microbes: in polluted environments, for instance, flavonoids can induce the expression of the enzymatic degra...
