Other substrates include the compatible solute ectoine and hydroxyectoine and pyroglutamate. (wikipedia.org)
Consortia enriched from activated sludge at 15 °C accumulated the highest yields of ectoine and hydroxyectoine at 6 % NaCl (105.0 ± 27.2 and 24.2 ± 5.4 mgextremolyte gbiomass−1, respectively). (deep-purple.eu)
The consortia enriched from the salt lagoon accumulated the highest yield of ectoine and hydroxyectoine at 9 % NaCl (56.6 ± 2.5 and 51.0 ± 2.0 mgextremolyte gbiomass−1, respectively) at 25 °C. The supplementation of tungsten to the cultivation medium did not impact on the accumulation of ectoines in any of the consortia. (deep-purple.eu)
Synthesis1
Genome analysis revealed that the genes related to the synthesis and transport of compatible solutes (glycine, betaine, ectoine, hydroxyectoine, and glutamate) confirm salt stress as well as heavy metal resistance. (bvsalud.org)
Ectoine and Hydroxyectoine3
Compatible solutes like Ectoine and Hydroxyectoine are produced by extremophilic bacteria as a cell protectant to survive in harsh environments. (annalsoftransplantation.com)
Other substrates include the compatible solute ectoine and hydroxyectoine and pyroglutamate. (wikipedia.org)
Low and high values are for compatible solutes ectoine and hydroxyectoine, respectively. (harvard.edu)
Transporter1
The catabolic genes are co-transcribed with three genes encoding a 5-hydroxyectoine/ectoine-specific TRAP transporter. (unipr.it)
Bacterium2
García-Estepa R, Argandoña M, Reina-Bueno M, Capote N, Iglesias-Guerra F, Nieto JJ, Vargas C. The ectD gene, which is involved in the synthesis of the compatible solute hydroxyectoine, is essential for thermoprotection of the halophilic bacterium Chromohalobacter salexigens. (harvard.edu)
Using the marine bacterium Ruegeria pomeroyi DSS-3, we investigated the utilization of ectoines and propose a seven steps comprising catabolic route that entails an initial conversion of 5-hydroxyectoine to ectoine, the opening of the ectoine ring, and the subsequent degradation of this intermediate to l-aspartate.

Genes2
EnuR contains a covalently bound pyridoxal-5'-phosphate, and we suggest that this co-factor is critical for the substrate-mediated induction of the 5-hydroxyectoine/ectoine import and catabolic genes. (unipr.it)
Bioinformatics showed that ectoine consumers are restricted to the Proteobacteria and that EnuR is likely a central regulator for most ectoine/5-hydroxyectoine catabolic genes. (unipr.it)
Role3
Our data provide evidence for the beneficial role of Hydroxyectoine-modified HTK solution for the preservation of DCD livers compared to HTK. (annalsoftransplantation.com)

Values2
Malondialdehyde values were significantly lower in DCD+Hydroxyectoine (0.8±0.09, 1.14±0.18, 0.77±0.08 nmol/mL). (annalsoftransplantation.com)
Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 showed significantly lower values in DCD+Hydroxyectoine (219.07±51.79, 431.9±35.70, 205.2±37.71 pg/mL) and the portal venous pressure at 45 min was lower compared to DCD (20.41±0.12, 27.47±0.45, 22.08±0.78 mmHg). (annalsoftransplantation.com)
