Matthew A Churchward et al.
Biophysical journal, 94(10), 3976-3986 (2008-01-30)
The Ca(2+)-triggered merger of two apposed membranes is the defining step of regulated exocytosis. CHOL is required at critical levels in secretory vesicle membranes to enable efficient, native membrane fusion: CHOL-sphingomyelin enriched microdomains organize the site and regulate fusion efficiency

In the present study, n-hexadecane degradation in MSM was investigated by three bacteria identified as Pseudomonas aeruginosa PSA5, Rhodococcus sp. NJ2 and Ochrobactrum intermedium P2, isolated from petroleum sludge. During 10 days of incubation, n-hexadecane was degraded to 99% by

Applied microbiology and biotechnology, 94(4), 1019-1029 (2012-04-25)
LadA, a monooxygenase catalyzing the oxidation of n-alkanes to 1-alkanols, is the key enzyme for the degradation of long-chain alkanes (C(15)-C(36)) in Geobacillus thermodenitrificans NG80-2. In this study, random- and site-directed mutagenesis were performed to enhance the activity of the
