Journal ArticleDOI
Isolation and characterization of benzene, toluene and xylene degrading Pseudomonas sp. selected as candidates for bioremediation
TL;DR: Two Pseudomonas strains were isolated from an oil refinery wastewater based on their capabilities to grow using several hydrocarbons as sole carbon source and to accumulate polyhydroxyalkanoates and one was able to degrade benzene, toluene, and xylene, and to tolerate them at high concentrations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biofilm lifestyle enhances diesel bioremediation and biosurfactant production in the Antarctic polyhydroxyalkanoate producer Pseudomonas extremaustralis
TL;DR: This work shows that the PHA accumulating bacterium P. extremaustralis can be a good candidate to be used as hydrocarbon bioremediation agent, especially in extreme environments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Novel Essential Role of Ethanol Oxidation Genes at Low Temperature Revealed by Transcriptome Analysis in the Antarctic Bacterium Pseudomonas extremaustralis.
Paula M. Tribelli,Paula M. Tribelli,Esmeralda C. Solar Venero,Martiniano M. Ricardi,María Gómez-Lozano,Laura J. Raiger Iustman,Laura J. Raiger Iustman,Søren Molin,Nancy I. López,Nancy I. López +9 more
TL;DR: The obtained results have led to the identification of novel components involved in cold adaptation mechanisms in this bacterium, suggesting for the first time a role of the ethanol oxidation pathway for bacterial growth at low temperatures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genome sequence analysis of Pseudomonas extremaustralis provides new insights into environmental adaptability and extreme conditions resistance
Laura J. Raiger Iustman,Laura J. Raiger Iustman,Paula M. Tribelli,Paula M. Tribelli,José G. Ibarra,Mariela V. Catone,Esmeralda C. Solar Venero,Nancy I. López,Nancy I. López +8 more
TL;DR: Findings suggest that in P. extremaustralis the horizontal transfer events and/or gene redundancy could play a key role in the survival under unfavorable conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genome Sequence of the Polyhydroxybutyrate Producer Pseudomonas extremaustralis, a Highly Stress-Resistant Antarctic Bacterium
Paula M. Tribelli,Laura J. Raiger Iustman,Mariela V. Catone,Carla Di Martino,Santiago Revale,Beatriz S. Méndez,Nancy I. López +6 more
TL;DR: This is the first genome sequence reported from a Pseudomonas isolated from cold environments, and presents genes involved in the synthesis of different polyhydroxyalkanoates, in tolerance and degradation of pollutants, and in microaerobic metabolism.
