Metabolism of urea by Chlorella vulgaris.
Urea metabolism was studied with nitrogen-starved cells of Chlorella vulgaris Beijerinck var. viridis (Chodat), a green alga which apparently lacks urease. Incorporation of radioactivity from urea-(14)C into the alcohol-soluble fraction was virtually eliminated in cell suspensions flushed with 10% CO(2) in air. This same result was obtained when expected acceptors of urea carbon were replenishe...
متن کاملMetabolism of Urea & Ornithine Cycle Intermediates by Nitrogen-Starved Cells of Chlorella vulgaris.
Ornithine cycle amino acids and urea serve well as nitrogen sources for Chlorella ( 1, 6, 19, 25). The metabolic pathways involved have been the subject of speculation, since certain evidence indicated that the classical mechanisms used by a number of other organisms might not operate in Chlorella. For example, Hattori (6) could not demonstrate arginase activity in extracts of this organism. Wa...
متن کاملYellow Mutant of Chlorella vulgaris
An antiserum to tobacco glycolate oxidase has been prepared by injection of the purified enzyme into rabbits. Double gel diffusion tests between the antiserum and purified antigen and also with a crude tobacco preparation gave a single immunoprecipitation band. Crude extracts of Euglena gracilis Z Klebs, containing glycolate dehydrogenase, and of Chlorella vulgaris 211-llh/20, containing glycol...
متن کاملThe role of phosphorus in the metabolism of arsenate by a freshwater green alga, Chlorella vulgaris.
A freshwater microalga, Chlorella vulgaris, was grown in the presence of varying phosphate concentrations (<10-500μg/L P) and environmentally realistic concentrations of arsenate (As(V)) (5-50μg/L As). Arsenic speciation in the culture medium and total cellular arsenic were measured using AEC-ICP-MS and ICP-DRC-MS, respectively, to determine arsenic biotransformation and uptake in the various p...
متن کاملBiotransformation and bioconcentration of steroid estrogens by Chlorella vulgaris.
The biotransformation and bioconcentration of natural and synthetic steroid estrogens by Chlorella vulgaris were investigated by using batch-shaking experiments with incubation for 48 h in the light or dark. Estradiol and estrone were interconvertible in both light and dark conditions; however, this biotransformation showed a preference for estrone. In the light, 50% estradiol was further metab...
