What's the difference between bacillus and typhotoxin?

Bacillus


Definition:

  • (n.) A variety of bacterium; a microscopic, rod-shaped vegetable organism.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) We report the isolation of an RNA polymerase from sporulating cells of Bacillus thuringiensis subsp.
  • (2) Concentrations of each constituent were correlated with the growth inhibitions of Bacillus subtilis (IP-5832).
  • (3) Bordetella pertussis and Bacillus anthracis, two taxonomically distinct bacteria, secrete adenylate cyclase toxins that are activated by the eukaryotic protein calmodulin.
  • (4) The action of neopullulanase from Bacillus stearothermophilus on many oligosaccharides was tested.
  • (5) Bacillus subtilis grown at 42 degrees C produces a major form of Gro EL-like chaperonin that has been analyzed by electron microscopy.
  • (6) Bacillus thuringiensis subspecies kurstaki (Btk) and subspecies berliner (Btb) both produce lepidopteran-specific larvicidal protoxins with different activities against the same insect species.
  • (7) A total of 23 phage specific proteins (including four head and six tail proteins) could be identified after SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of extracts from phage SPP1 infected Bacillus subtilis cells.
  • (8) These cocultures can be considered as metabolic associations, where the Bacillus produces degradation and fermentation products of pectin, which can be used by Azospirillum species.
  • (9) 6-(Benzylamino)uracils and substituted 6-anilinouracils have been found to be potent inhibitors of Bacillus subtilis DNA polymerase III by a mechanism identical with that of 6-(phenylhydrazino)uracils.
  • (10) The temperature optimum is 70-73 degrees C and growth occurs from 62 to 77 degrees C. The organism's thermal and physiological characteristics are compared to those of Bacillus stearothermophilus, Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum, Sulfolobus acidocalderius, Thermus aquaticus, Thermus flavus, as well as Thiobacillus denitrificans, the latter being the only other facultatively anaerobic chemolithotroph which has been isolated and described.
  • (11) A 4.1-kb EcoRI fragment which includes the gene (gldA) encoding a glycerol dehydrogenase (G1DH; EC 1.1.1.6; glycerol:NAD oxidoreductase) from Bacillus stearothermophilus var.
  • (12) Studies were performed on the prtR gene which enhances the production of the Bacillus subtilis extracellular proteases and levansucrase, but not the alpha-amylase, RNase, and alkaline phosphatase.
  • (13) 1965.-A correlation is shown to exist in Bacillus subtilis between susceptibility to phage PBS1 and motility, indicating that the receptor site for this phage is located on the flagellum.
  • (14) Six cultures of Bacillus and six lot numbers of Trypticase soy agar (BBL) were used to test the hypothesis that a microorganism grown on various lot numbers of the same chromatogram.
  • (15) Effects of alpha- or beta-D-glucose on the respiration of germinated spores (only germinated spores not including swollen spores and elongated spores) of Bacillus subtilis and B. megaterium were studied.
  • (16) The predicted amino acid sequence of the partial APase clone as well as the experimentally determined amino acid sequence of the enzyme indicated that B. licheniformis APase retains the important features conserved among other APases of Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and various human tissues.
  • (17) A series of plasmids has been constructed that can be used to fuse the beta-galactosidase gene (lacZ) of Escherichia coli to chromosomal genes of Bacillus subtilis.
  • (18) Phospholipase C from Bacillus cereus was purified to homogeneity as judged by analytical and sodium dodecyl sulphate disc gel electrophoresis and by immunoelectrophoresis.
  • (19) These results suggest that growth patterns of Bacillus subtilis can be altered as a result of magnetic-field-induced effects.
  • (20) The above-cited results, in conjunction with previous results obtained with Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacillus subtilis, involve diverse biochemical pathways and suggest that nutritional manipulation to alter the pattern of carbon flow in microorganisms is a generally useful means to accomplish increased sensitivity to growth inhibition by metabolite analogs.

Typhotoxin


Definition:

  • (n.) A basic substance, C7H17NO2, formed from the growth of the typhoid bacillus on meat pulp. It induces in small animals lethargic conditions with liquid dejecta.
