Bacillus methanolicus as cell factory for conversion of seaweed biomass to value-added chemicals at 50C
Corrigendum: Genome-Based Genetic Tool Development for Bacillus methanolicus: Theta- and Rolling Circle-Replicating Plasmids for Inducible Gene Expression and Application to Methanol-Based Cadaverine Production
Lipid and DHA-production in Aurantiochytrium sp. – Responses to nitrogen starvation and oxygen limitation revealed by analyses of production kinetics and global transcriptomes
Thraustochytrids of the genera Schizochytrium and Aurantiochytrium accumulate oils rich in the essential, marine n3 fatty acid docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). DHA production in Aurantiochytrium sp T66 was studied with the aim to provide more knowledge about factors that affect the DHA-productivities and...
Survey the diversity of CAZymes in metagenomics libraries originated from the microbial habitats in the Nordics by sequence-based data mining
CARACTERIZACIÓN DE CEPAS DE BACILLUS SP. CON APLICACIÓN INDUSTRIAL AISLADAS DE MADERA EN DESCOMPOSICIÓN
La necesidad de encontrar nuevos microrganismos de interés industrial ha llevado a buscarlos en ambientes diversos. Por ello, un nicho ecológico poco estudiado en relación con las bacterias, pero que puede albergar microorganismos de interés, es la madera en degradación. Esta degradación es un...
Microbiomes of decaying wood
Wood and wood derived materials are versatile and in widespread use. To withstand the constant threat of degradation by climatic and biotic agents (e.g. molds and insects), preservation is a continuous challenge. New environmental regulations have changed wood decay prevention from traditional...

Industrial applications of different strains of Bacillus spp. isolated from decayed wood
This work has been focused on the isolation and characterization of microorganism from decayed wood. 357 bacterial species were isolated from different wood samples and European locations. 25% of them belong to the Bacillus genus, which are known as producer metabolites and enzymes suitable for...
