Bioenergetics Studies of the Cyanobacterium Anabaena variabilis
A cell-free system exhibiting both photophosphorylation (P /2e = 1) and oxidative phosphoryla tion (P/O up to 0 .8 ) is described for the cyanobacterium Anabaena variabilis. NADH and N A D PH were found to be equally effective as electron donors for oxidative phosphorylation. Low concentrations of U H D B T , an inhibitor of the cytochrome blc complex of mitochondria and chloroplasts. were fou...
متن کاملTranscriptional and mutational analysis of the uptake hydrogenase of the filamentous cyanobacterium Anabaena variabilis ATCC 29413.
A 10-kb DNA region of the cyanobacterium Anabaena variabilis ATCC 29413 containing the structural genes of the uptake hydrogenase (hupSL) was cloned and sequenced. In contrast to the hupL gene of Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120, which is interrupted by a 10.5-kb DNA fragment in vegetative cells, there is no programmed rearrangement within the hupL gene during the heterocyst differentiation of A. v...
متن کاملRNA processing of nitrogenase transcripts in the cyanobacterium Anabaena variabilis.
Little is known about the regulation of nitrogenase genes in cyanobacteria. Transcription of the nifH1 and vnfH genes, encoding dinitrogenase reductases for the heterocyst-specific Mo-nitrogenase and the alternative V-nitrogenase, respectively, was studied by using a lacZ reporter. Despite evidence for a transcription start site just upstream of nifH1 and vnfH, promoter fragments that included ...
متن کاملPhotosynthesis and Inorganic Carbon Usage by the Marine Cyanobacterium, Synechococcus sp.
The marine cyanobacterium, Synechococcus sp. Nägeli (strain RRIMP N1) changes its affinity for external inorganic carbon used in photosynthesis, depending on the concentration of CO(2) provided during growth. The high affinity for CO(2) + HCO(3) (-) of air-grown cells (K((1/2)) < 80 nanomoles [pH 8.2]) would seem to be the result of the presence of an inducible mechanism which concentrates inor...
متن کاملPhotosynthesis and inorganic carbon transport in isolated asparagus mesophyll cells.
The possibility of HCO(3) (-) transport into isolated leaf mesophyll cells of Asparagus sprengeri Regel has been investigated. Measurement of the inorganic carbon pool in these cells over an external pH range 6.2 to 8.0, using the silicone-fluid filtration technique, indicated that the pool was larger than predicted by passive (14)CO(2) distribution, suggesting that HCO(3) (-) as well as CO(2) ...
