Annotation of gut bacterial taxonomic and functional diversity in Spodoptera litura and Spilosoma obliqua
This study highlights the significance of the inherent microbiome of two defoliators in shaping the metagenome for nutrition and detoxifying the chemical molecules, and opens an avenue for exploring role of insect gut bacteria in host selection, metabolic endurance of insecticides and synergistic or agonistic mechanisms inside gut of insects feeding on insect‐resistant biotech crops.

Development of an efficient host ‐vector system of Ruminiclostridium josui
Although Ruminiclostridium josui (formerly Clostridium josui), a strictly anaerobic mesophilic cellulolytic bacterium, is a promising candidate for biomass utilization via consolidated bioprocessing, its host‐vector system has not yet been established. The existence of a restriction and modification system is a significant barrier to the transformation of R. josui. Here, we partially purified restriction endonuclease RjoI from R. josui cell extract using column chromatography. Further characterization showed that RjoI is an isoschizomer of DpnI, recognizing the sequence 5′‐GmetATC‐3′, where the A nucleotide is Da...

Mercury tolerance and biosorption in bacteria isolated from Ny ‐Ålesund, Svalbard, Arctic
Mercury tolerant bacteria Pseudarthrobacter oxydans strain MM20 and Pseudomonas frederiksbergensis strain SS18 were isolated from the tundra ecosystem of Ny‐Ålesund, Svalbard, where commercial exploitation of the coal existed till 1960s. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), mercury removal, mercury biosorption, and antibiotic resistance of these strains were analyzed. P. frederiksbergensis strain SS18 showed high tolerance (2.0 ppm) to mercury than P. oxydans strain MM20 (1.5 ppm). Mercury removal and biosorption studies were carried out in liquid media containing 1.0 ppm mercury. More than 90% of mercury was r...

Catechol 2,3 ‐dioxygenase from a new phenolic compound degrader Thauera sp. K11: purification and biochemical characterization
Catechol 2,3‐dioxygenase (C23O) from a new phenolic compound degrader Thauera sp. K11 was purified and characterized. The native form of the enzyme was determined as a homotetramer with a molecular weight of 140 kDa, and its isoelectric point was close to 6.4. One iron per enzyme subunit was detected using atom absorption spectroscopy, and the effective size of C23O in its dilute solution (0.2 g L−1, pH 8.0) was 14.5 nm. The optimal pH and temperature were 8.4 and 45 °C, respectively. The addition of Mg2+, Cu2+, Fe2+, and Mn2+ could improve the enzyme activity, while Ag+ was found to be a strong inhibitor. C...
