    Improved method of protoplast fusion between marine luminescent bacterium and Escherichia coli cultivated with fatty acid

    An attempt was made to improve the stability toward centrifugation of protoplast fusion between Shewanella sp. and Escherichia coli. Stability of the cell membrane is an important factor in protoplast fusion. In ...

    Lipid and fatty acid compositions of a novel docosahexaenoic acid-producing marine bacterium

    An unidentified bacterial strain, SCRC-21406, isolated from the intestine of a marine fish, Glossanodon semifasciatus, produced docosahexaenoic acid at 23% (mol/mol) [=28% (w/w)] of total fatty acids in a medium ...
