Book Description
It is 1839 and Huw Pengellin is desperate to find a better life for his family than the one he ekes out in Wales. His wife, Martha, is fully aware just how foolhardy Huw’s schemes can be, but she is keen to escape the foundry slums, as well as Huw’s brother Gareth, with his hot eyes and roving hands’ Might Colonel Wakefield’s plans to take settlers to the distant shores of New Zealand offer a solution? On the other side of the world, watching the new arrivals, is Hineroa, who is also desperate to find a better life. Will she be a slave for ever, will she ever be reunited with her people, and will the ships that keep sailing into the bay bring further trouble? Change is underway, not just for these characters but also for the crescent of beach, thick bush and steep hills that are about to become the bustling settlement of Wellington.

Regulation of Biofilm Formation in Two Gamma-proteobacteria
Author: Jana Mueller
Publisher: Stanford University
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 166
Book Description
S. oneidensis MR-1 is a dissimilatory metal-reducing bacterium. Under anaerobic conditions S. oneidensis MR-1 attaches to insoluble minerals such as Fe(III) and Mn(IV) oxides and can use these as alternative electron acceptors. Biofilms of S. oneidensis MR- 1 were previously found to be dependent on the mxd gene cluster (mxdABCD). This study identified environmental and genetic factors regulating mxd -dependent and -independent biofilm formation in S. oneidensis MR-1 and a putative function for mxdB in LPS biosynthesis. Physiological experiments determined electron donor starvation as a factor responsible for mxd induction. Tn5 mutagenesis identified the two-component signaling system (TCS) ArcS/ArcA and a putative TCS BarA/UvrY as regulators of mxd expression. ccmC, important for cytochrome c maturation, was found to be involved in biofilm formation in S. oneidensis MR-1. Microarray analysis identified ccmC to play a role in aspects of anaerobic and fermentative metabolism in S. oneidensis MR-1. In conclusion, these data indicate a potential connection between energy metabolism of the cell, mxd and biofilm formation in S. oneidenis MR-1. The natural life cycle of the phylogenetically closest relative V. cholerae A1552 involves the transitioning of cells between different environmental surfaces such as the chitinous shell of Crustaceae and the epithelial layer of the human intestine and vice versa. Biofilms of V. cholerae A1552 vpsA and luxO mutants grown under hydrodynamic flow conditions were found to form pronounced, three-dimensional biofilms that resemble all aspects of wild type biofilms. By genetic experiments, it was shown that in hydrodynamically-grown biofilms this independence of vpsA is due to the expression of rpoS, which is a negative regulator of vpsA expression. Biofilms also underwent substantial metabolically controlled dissolution after 96 h that could be induced by a simple stop of medium flow across the biofilm. These studies indicate that metabolic conditions control the reversible attachment of cells to the biofilm matrix and are key in regulating biofilm cell physiology via rpoS. Furthermore, these results redefine the roles of vps and quorum-sensing in V. cholerae A1552 biofilms.

Applied Microbiology
Author: A. Durieux
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 0306468883
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 265
Book Description
This book illustrates the major trends in applied microbiology research with immediate or potential industrial applications. The papers proposed reflect the diversity of the application fields. New microbial developments have been done as well in the food and health sectors than in the environmental technology or in the fine chemical production. All the microbial genera are involved : yeast, fungi and bacteria. The development of biotechnology in parallel with the industrial microbiology has enabled the application of microbial diversity to our socio-economical world. The remarkable properties of microbes, inherent in their genetic and enzymatic material, allow a wide range of applications that can improve our every day life. Recent studies for elucidating the molecular basis of the physiological processes in micro-organisms are essential to improve and to control the metabolic pathways to overproduce metabolites or enzymes of industrial interest. The genetic engineering is of course one of the disciplines offering new horizons for the « fantastic microbial factory » . Studies of the culture parameter incidence on the physiology and the morphology are essential to control the response of the micro-organisms before its successful exploitation at the industrial scale. For this purpose, fundamental viewpoints are necessary. Development of novel approaches to characterise micro-organisms would also facilitate the understanding of the inherent metabolic diversity of the microbial world, in terms of adaptation to a wide range of biotopes and establishment of microbial consortia.

Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 278
Book Description
The new series "Microbiology Monographs" begins with two volumes on intracellular components in prokaryotes. In this first volume, "Inclusions in Prokaryotes", the components, labeled inclusions, are defined as discrete bodies resulting from synthesis of a metabolic product. Research on the biosynthesis and reutilization of the accumulated materials is still in progress, and interest in the inclusions is growing. This comprehensive volume provides historical background and comprehensive reviews of eight well-known prokaryotic inclusions.
