Arthrobacter globiformis

An extracellular inulin fructotransferase that results in the formation of a-D-Fru/-1,2 2,1 -(3-D-Fru/ [difructose anhydride I (5)] has been purified from Arthrobacter globiformis S14-3,65,66 from Arthrobacter sp. MCI-249367 and from Streptomyces sp. MCI-2524.68...

Recently novel methods were reported to make (lR)-trans-chrysanthemic acid including optical resolutions with the (+)-3-caranediol or l,l -binaphthol monoethylether, enzymatic resolution with Arthrobacter globiformis and the asymmetric synthesis with a new Cu catalyst. These methods are reviewed in this section. 

In contrast to the substantial work with MAO, relatively little research has been reported on the mechanism of inhibition of copper-containing amine oxidases and SSAO by cyclopropylamines. Bovine plasma amine oxidase, equine plasma amine oxidase, Escherichia coii amine oxidase, and Arthrobacter globiformis amine oxidase were inhibited by frans-2-phenylcyclopropylamine (8a) and the mode of inhibition was shown by spectral and crystal structure analyses to be competitive and reversible [36,37,129],...

Dihydroxyphenylacetate-2/3-dioxygenase from Arthrobacter globiformis (Boldt et al. 1995) and from Bacillus brevis (Que et al. 1981) is an Mn(II) enzyme, and is neither activated by Fe(II) nor rapidly inhibited by FI2O2. 

Biological Removal Six species of bacteria, each capable of metabolizing limonoids, have been isolated from soil by enrichment using limonoids as carbon sources. They are Arthrobacter globiformis (34), Pseudomonas 321-18 (35), Arthrobacter globiformis II (36), Bacterium 342-152-1, Corynebacterium fasclans (37) and Aclnetobacter sp. (38). Based on the metabolites and enzymes produced by these species of bacteria, five metabolic pathways of limonoids have been established in bacteria (3)(Fig. 4).
