Self-diffusion in the Iron-Molybdenum System

the search for the self in becketts theatre: waiting for godot and endgame

this thesis is based upon the works of samuel beckett. one of the greatest writers of contemporary literature. here, i have tried to focus on one of the main themes in becketts works: the search for the real "me" or the real self, which is not only a problem to be solved for beckett man but also for each of us. i have tried to show becketts techniques in approaching this unattainable goal, base...

Quantifying the anomalous self-diffusion in molybdenum with first-principles simulations

Biochemistry Metal and sulfur composition of iron - molybdenum cofactor of nitrogenase ( molybdenum - iron protein / dinitrogen reduction / iron - sulfur clusters )

The sulfur content of N-methylformamide solutions of cofactor from Clostridium pasteurianum nitrogenase has been determined to be 11.9 (+0.9) mol per mol of molybdenum. This number was determined radiochemically, using iron-molybdenum cofactor isolated from molybdenum-iron protein from bacteria grown on 35SO4. A total of 3.2 (±0.2) mol of sulfur per mol of molybdenum was found to be present in ...

Biosynthesis of iron-molybdenum cofactor in the absence of nitrogenase.

Klebsiella pneumoniae accumulates molybdenum during nitrogenase derepression. The molybdenum is primarily in nitrogenase component I in the form of iron-molybdenum cofactor (FeMo-co). Mutations in any of three genes (nifB, nifN, and nifE) involved in the biosynthesis of FeMo-co resulted in very low molybdenum accumulation and in a molybdenum-free nitrogenase component I. A mutant lacking both s...

In vitro synthesis of the iron-molybdenum cofactor of nitrogenase.

Molybdate- and ATP-dependent in vitro synthesis of the iron-molybdenum cofactor (FeMo-co) of nitrogenase requires the protein products of at least the nifB, nifN, and nifE genes. Extracts of FeMo-co-negative mutants of Klebsiella pneumoniae and Azotobacter vinelandii with lesions in different genes can be complemented for FeMo-co synthesis. Both K. pneumoniae and A. vinelandii dinitrogenase (co...
