Characterisation of a glucose phosphotransferase system in Clostridium acetobutylicum ATCC 824 (2006)
Journal Article
Tangney, M., & Mitchell, W. J. (2007). Characterisation of a glucose phosphotransferase system in Clostridium acetobutylicum ATCC 824. Applied microbiology and biotechnology, 74(2), 398-405. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00253-006-0679-9

The transport of glucose by the solventogenic anaerobe Clostridium acetobutylicum was investigated. Glucose phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP)-dependent phosphotransferase system (PTS) activity was detected in extracts prepared from cultures grown on glucose...

The efficacy of certain anti-tuberculosis drugs is affected by binding to alpha-1-acid glycoprotein. (2006)
Journal Article
Johnson, D. A., & Smith, K. (2006). The efficacy of certain anti-tuberculosis drugs is affected by binding to alpha-1-acid glycoprotein. Biomedical Chromatography, 20, 551-560. https://doi.org/10.1002/bmc.641

One of the most ubiquitous plasma proteins, -1-acid glycoprotein (AGP), has a high affinity, low capacity binding for basic drugs positively charged at physiological pH. Moreover, as an acute phase protein its level is increased in various disease st...

Millisia brevis gen. nov., sp. nov., an actinomycete isolated from activated sludge foam. (2006)
Journal Article
Soddell, J. A., Stainsby, F. M., Eales, K. L., Kroppenstedt, R. M., Seviour, R. J., & Goodfellow, M. (2006). Millisia brevis gen. nov., sp. nov., an actinomycete isolated from activated sludge foam. International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 56, 739-744. https://doi.org/10.1099/ijs.0.63855-0

The taxonomic position of two mycolic-acid-producing actinomycetes, isolates J81T and J82, which were recovered from activated sludge foam, was clarified. Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence studies indicated that the organisms formed a distinct linea...
