Journal ArticleDOI
Biodegradation of trichloroethylene by Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b.
TL;DR: Cells capable oxidizing trichloroethylene contained components of soluble methane monooxygenase as demonstrated by Western blot (immunoblot) analysis with antibodies prepared against the purified enzyme.
Journal ArticleDOI
Survey of microbial oxygenases: trichloroethylene degradation by propane-oxidizing bacteria.
TL;DR: The results indicated that TCE oxidation is not a common property of broad-specificity microbial oxygenases and one new unique class of microorganisms removed TCE from incubation mixtures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Factors affecting competition between type I and type II methanotrophs in two-organism, continuous-flow reactors
TL;DR: The results imply that nitrogen limitation can be used to select for type II strains such as M. trichosporium OB3b, which has significant cometabolic potential and which proved dominant under copper and nitratelimited conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimization of trichloroethylene oxidation by methanotrophs and the use of a colorimetric assay to detect soluble methane monooxygenase activity
TL;DR: Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b biosynthesizes a broad specificity soluble methane monooxygenase that rapidly oxidizes trichloroethylene (TCE) and test several methanotrophic bacteria for the ability to oxidize TCE and naphthalene.
Journal ArticleDOI
Methylobacterium, a New Genus of Facultatively Methylotrophic Bacteria
TL;DR: This bacterium differs from all previously described genera and species of methane-oxidizing bacteria in its ability to utilize a variety of organic substrates with carbon-carbon bonds as sources of carbon and energy.
