Bacillus megaterium accumulates poly-(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) as a reserve material in intracellular granules. In this work we described a method for the preparation of PHB granules from B. megaterium PV447 and the analysis by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the associated proteins. By comparison with another species a function is proposed for some of these proteins.
