    Notes: Abstract In methanol-limited continuous cultures of the obligate methylotrophic bacteriumMethylobacillus flagellatum grown at rates from 0.05 to 0.63 h-1, and also in an oxyturbidostat culture ofM. flagellatum growing at the rate of 0.73 h-1, levels of methanol dehydrogenase, enzymes of formaldehyde oxidation (both linear and cyclic) and assimilation (RuMP cycle), a number of intermediary metabolism and TCA cycle enzymes and also ‘dye-linked’ formaldehyde dehydrogenase were determined. It was shown that the activities of dissimilatory enzymes, with the exception of ‘dye-linked’ formaldehyde dehydrogenase, decreased with increasing growth rate. Activities of assimilative enzymes and activities of the TCA cycle enzymes detected as well as the ‘dye-linked’ formaldehyde dehydrogenase activity, increased with increasing growth rate. A periplasmic location was shown for the latter enzyme and a role in formaldehyde detoxification was proposed.

    Notes: The growth characteristics of a chemostat culture of the obligate methylotrophic bacterium Methylobacillus flagellatum have been determined. Steady-state cultures growing at a rate of 0.73-0.74 h-1, equal to the maximal growth rate, were obtained under oxyturbidostat cultivation conditions. The response of a chemostat culture to a pulse increase of methanol concentration was studied. It was shown that slow and rapidly growing cultures of M. flagellatum responded differently to pulse methanol addition. The growth characteristics of slow-growing cultures decreased after methanol addition compared to those of stationary chemostat cultures. The growth characteristics of rapidly growing cultures were practically unchanged with and without pulse methanol addition.

    Notes: We report here the construction of a promoter-probe vector, pRS2, which can be utilized in either Acetobacter methanolicus MB 58 or Escherichia coli due to the presence of broad-host-range replicon RSF 1010. The vector provides several unique restriction sites for promoter cloning as well as resistance markers for the selection of transformants. The promoter-probe vector was constructed by inserting an EcoRI-SalI-polylinker fragment of pUC 19 into EcoRI/SalI digested pMK 16. The resulting plasmid, pRS1, was cloned into the unique EcoRI site of the broad-host-range plasmid RSF 1010.The vector was used to clone promoter-containing sequences derived from the A. methanolicus MB 58 chromosome as well as the E. coli lac-promoter.
