An Investigation of Acetobacter aceti N5-Carboxyaminoimidazole Ribonucleotide Mutase and Its purE-purK Operon
<italic>Acetobacter aceti</italic> oxidizes ethanol to acetic acid. While the membrane-permeable acetic acid is toxic to many bacteria, A. aceti survives exposure to acetic acid by tolerating cytoplasmic acidification. The ability to tolerate an acidic cytoplasm suggests that proteins from A. aceti …

A Specialized Citric Acid Cycle Requiring Succinyl-Coenzyme A (CoA):Acetate CoA-Transferase (AarC) Confers Acetic Acid Resistance on the Acidophile Acetobacter aceti
The characteristic ability of acetic acid bacteria to aerobically oxidize ethanol to acetic acid has been harnessed for millennia to produce vinegar. Acetic acid permeates cell membranes at low pH and generally inhibits bacterial growth at low millimolar concentrations. The strains used for vinegar …

Analysis of Hopanoids From Three Psychrophilic Marine Bacterial Strains
… might synthesize hopanoids. The bacterium, Acetobacter aceti subsp. aceti, known to contain hopanoids, was also analyzed as a control. Cellular lipids were extracted from freeze-dried cells using a chloroform/methanol/water solvent system. Crude extracts were treated with a solution of …

Mechanistic characterization of acetic acid resistance enzymes of Acetobacer aceti
<p><em>Acetobacter aceti</em> (<em>A. aceti</em>) is a Gram-negative, acidophilic bacterium that is used for the industrial production of acetic acid from ethanol. Oxidation of ethanol by membrane-bound oxidoreductases provides energy for A. aceti and the production of high concentrations of acetic …
