Journal of bacteriology.J Bacteriol.2014 Dec 1;196(23):4130-9. doi: 10.1128/JB.02026-14. Epub 2014 Sep 15.
Methylotrophs grow on reduced single-carbon compounds like methylamine as the sole source of carbon and energy. In Methylobacterium extorquens AM1, the best-studied aerobic methylotroph, a periplasmic methylamine dehydrogenase that catalyzes the primary oxidation of methylamine to formaldehyde has b

Mycobacterium tuberculosis is able to synthesise molybdopterin cofactor (MoCo), which is utilised by numerous enzymes that catalyse redox reactions in carbon, nitrogen and sulphur metabolism. In bacteria, MoCo is further modified through the activity of a guanylyltransferase, MobA, which converts Mo
Gradient Phonetic Implementation of Regressive Voicing Assimilation in Catalan Heterosyllabic Two- and Three-Consonant Clusters.

Phonetica.Phonetica.2014 Nov 17;71(2):128-156. [Epub ahead of print]
Electroglottographic data for word-final obstruents in C#C and CC#C sequences with a word-initial voiced consonant indicate that regressive voicing adaptation is a categorical and thus assimilatory process for most Catalan speakers. Word-final obstruents are planned as voiced since they exhibit full
