Dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase from halophilic archaebacteria.
Dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase has been discovered in the halophilic archaebacteria for the first time. The enzyme from both classical and alkaliphilic halobacteria has been investigated. (1) The enzyme specifically catalysed the stoichiometric oxidation of dihydrolipoamide by NAD+. Enzymic activity was optimal at 2 M-NaCl and was remarkably resistant to thermal denaturation. (2) The relative m...
متن کاملProperties of the Plasma Membrane ATPases of the Halophilic Archaebacteria Haloferax mediterranei and Haloferax volcanii
Both, Haloferax mediterranei and Haloferax volcanii membranes contain ATPases which are capable of hydrolyzing ATP in presence of Mg2+ or Mn2+. The ATPases require high con centrations of NaCl, a pH value of 9, and high temperatures up to 60 °C. Free manganese ions inhibited the enzyme activity of either ATPase. The ATPases of Hf. mediterranei and Hf. vol canii, respectively, show different s...
متن کاملTranssulfuration in archaebacteria.
The transfer of sulfur from methionine to cysteine in the archaebacteria Sulfolobus acidocaldarius and Halobacterium marismortui was studied by feeding 34S-labeled methionine to cells and measuring the incorporation of 34S into protein-bound cellular cysteine and methionine by mass spectrometry. It was found that, as are eucaryotes, both of these archaebacteria were able to convert the sulfur o...
متن کاملCharacterization of paralogous and orthologous members of the superoxide dismutase gene family from genera of the halophilic archaebacteria.
Four species representing three genera of halophilic archaebacteria were examined for the presence of genomic sequences that encode proteins of the superoxide dismutase family. Three species, Halobacterium cutirubrum, Halobacterium sp. strain GRB, and Haloferax volcanii, contain duplicated (paralogous) genes of the sod family; a fourth species, Haloarcula marismortui, contains only a single gen...
متن کاملImmunological comparison of ribosomal proteins from archaebacteria.
Antisera were raised in rabbits against ribosomal proteins of Methanobacterium bryantii and used to analyze immunological relationships to ribosomes from other archaebacteria, from eubacteria, and from yeasts. Cross-reaction could be detected within the methanogens and with a member of the extreme halophiles; the degree of immunological similarity reflected the relationship delineated by 16S ri...
