Reversibility of oxygen induced inactivation of nitrogenase in some enterobacteria.
Aerobic and microaerobic diazotrophs possess numerous oxygen restriction strategies to protect nitrogenase from inactivation by oxygen without interfering with energy generation through oxidative phosphorylation. Protection by conformational change in nitrogenase was first detected and described in Azotobacter. This strategy once considerd unique for Azotobacter has been shown in this study to ...
متن کاملNitrogenase, Hydrogenase and Hydrogen Production by Cyanobacteria
2 Summary Hydrogen has the potential to provide a clean, storable, transportable and renewable source of energy that can meet the need for power throughout the world. Biological production of hydrogen, especially by photosynthetic microorganisms that use sunlight for energy, provides a renewable source of hydrogen for fuel cells. Nitrogen-fixing cyanobacteria can produce hydrogen in an aerobic ...
متن کاملControl of nitrogenase recovery from oxygen inactivation by ammonia in the cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. strain CA (ATCC 33047).
The control of nitrogenase recovery from inactivation by oxygen was studied in Anabaena sp. strain CA (ATCC 33047). Nitrogenase activity (acetylene reduction) in cultures grown in 1% CO2 in air was inhibited by exposure to 1% CO2-99% O2 and allowed to recover in the presence of high oxygen tensions. Cultures exposed to hyperbaric levels of oxygen in the presence of 10 mM NH4NO3 were incapable o...
متن کاملOn-line monitoring of nitrogenase activity in cyanobacteria by sensitive laser photoacoustic detection of ethylene.
A new and extremely sensitive method for measuring nitrogenase activity through acetylene reduction is presented. Ethylene produced by nitrogenase-mediated reduction of acetylene is detected by using laser photoacoustics (LPA). This method possesses a detection limit making it 3 orders of magnitude more sensitive than traditional gas chromatographic analysis. Photoacoustic detection is based on...
