Physiology and biochemistry of primary alcohol oxidation in the gram-positive bacteria "amycolatopsis methanolica" and "bacillus methanolicus"

Abstract

This thesis describes characteristics of the novel enzyme systems involved in oxidation of primary alcohols in Gram-positive bacteria. The studies focussed on two facultatively methylotrophic, methanol-utilizing soil bacteria, the nocardioform actinomycete Amycolatopsis methanolica and the thermotolerant bacterium Bacillus methanolicus.
