The metabolism of acetate by the blue-green algae, Anabaena variabilis and Anacystis nidulans.
The utilization of acetate by blue-green algae was examined and the activities of enzymes involved in its metabolism measured. Although acetate did not stimulate the endogenous respiration of these organisms, the oxidation of acetate was followed by the rate of release of [14C] carbon dioxide from [I-~~CC] and [2-l4CC] sodium acetate. Similarly, sodium acetate did not alter the rate of growth o...
متن کامل[Activity of aminotransferases in the blue green alga Anacystis nidulans].
The blue-green alga Anacystis nidulans (strain L 1402-1) was grown at +37 degrees C in air (0.03 vol% CO2 and in air enriched with 3.0 vol% CO2. The effects of several inhibitors on the activity of aminotransferases, 14CO2 fixation and radioactive photosynthetic products of Anacystis were studied. No serine-pyruvate aminotransferase activity could be found in 10-2 M isonicotinyl hydrazide (INH)...
متن کاملTemporal genetic mapping of the blue-green alga, Anacystis nidulans.
HE blue-green algae are complex procaryotic organisms, genetic studies of Twhich might yield insight into the relationship between procaryotes and eucaryotes. Due to difficulties commonly encountered in growing blue-green algae on agar plates (ALLEN 1952; KUMAR 1962) and the apparent lack of an operational sexual system, genetic data on these organisms could not be established. However, this re...

متن کاملIsolation and characterization of ultraviolet light-sensitive mutants of the blue-green alga Anacystis nidulans.
Three independently isolated ultraviolet light-sensitive (uvs) mutants of Anacystis nidulans were characterized. Strain uvs-1 was most sensitive to UV in the absence of photoreactivation. Pretreatment with caffeine suppressed the dark-survival curve of strain uvs-1, indicating the presence of excision enzymes involved in dark repair. Under "black" and "white" illumination, strain uvs-1 displays...
