The aims of this work were to characterize and improve cellulose production by a Gluconoacetobacter xylinus strain isolated from… Expand

Acetan is a water-soluble polysaccharide produced by a bacterial cellulose (BC) producer, Acetobacter xylinum. An acetan… Expand

Novel aceQ and aceR genes involved in the acetan biosynthesis of Acetobacter xylinum were newly isolated. The homology search… Expand

The acetan biosynthetic pathway in Acetobacter xylinum is an ideal model system for engineering novel bacterial polysaccharides… Expand

Acetan is an anionic bacterial polysaccharide. The chemical repeat unit consists of a cellobiose unit solubilised by attachment… Expand

The aceA gene from Acetobacter xylinum was identified and cloned from a genomic DNA library. The complete DNA sequence was… Expand

A method has been developed that has been found to give reproducible images of uncoated polysaccharides by Atomic Force… Expand

Acetan is a bacterial polysaccharide produced by Acetobacter xylinum NRRL B42. Chemical mutagenesis of A.xylinum allowed… Expand

The exopolysaccharide acetan, elaborated by Acetobacter xylinum, has been investigated. The polysaccharide and a heptasaccharide… Expand

Summary: Several strains of Acetobacter xylinum were screened for in vivo cellulose and acetan production, and for in vitro… Expand
