With respect to cofactor requirements, NADH, and FMNH(2) were equally effective as electron donors for nitrate reductase obtained from leaves of maize, marrow, and spinach, when the cofactors were supplied in optimal concentrations. The concentration of FMNH(2) required to obtain half-maximal activity was from 40- to 100-fold higher than for NADH. For maximal activity with the corn enzyme, 0.8 ...
After x-ray irradiation, 13 mutants of Chlorella sorokiniana incapable of using NO(3) (-) as N source were isolated using a pinpoint method. Using immunoprecipitation and Western blot assays, no nitrate reductase was found in five strains while in eight mutants the enzyme was detected. The latter strains contained different patterns of nitrate reductase partial reactions. All isolates were of t...
The effect of nitrate on symbiotic nitrogen fixation by root nodules of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L., Walp., cv. California Blackeye) and lupine (Lupinus augustifolius L., cv. Frost) plants inoculated with nitrate reductase-expressing and nitrate reductase-nonexpressing Rhizobium strains were examined. Nitrate reductase of Rhizobium bacteroids in the nodules of cowpea and lupine reduced nitrate...
Exposure of the leaf canopy of corn seedlings (Zea mays L.) to atmospheric CO(2) levels ranging from 100 to 800 mul/l decreased nitrate accumulation and nitrate reductase activity. Plants pretreated with CO(2) in the dark and maintained in an atmosphere containing 100 mul/l CO(2) accumulated 7-fold more nitrate and had 2-fold more nitrate reductase activity than plants exposed to 600 mul/l CO(2...
The assimilation of nitrate in plants involves the reduction of nitrate to ammonia in two steps. The first step requires nitrate reductase, a nitrate-inducible enzyme. When seedlings of squash (Cucurbita maxima L.) were treated with nitrate, both nitrate reductase activity and protein were induced in the cotyledons. Poly(A)(+) RNA was prepared from cotyledons of nitrate-treated seedlings and wa...
A study was done to relate the in vivo reduction of nitrate to nitrate uptake, nitrate accumulation, and induction of nitrate reductase activity in intact barley seedlings (Hordeum vulgare L. var. ;Numar'). The characteristics of nitrate uptake in response to both time and ambient concentration of nitrate regulated reduction and accumulation. Uptake, accumulation, and in vivo reduction achieved...
NADH:nitrate reductase was extracted from corn leaves (Zea mays L. W64A x W182E) and purified on blue Sepharose. After the nitrate reductase was further purified by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, it was used to immunize mice and a rabbit. Western blots of crude leaf extracts were used to demonstrate monospecificity of the mouse ascitic fluids and the rabbit antiserum. The electrophoretic p...
Nitrate induces the formation of nitrate reductase activity in barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv. Himalaya) aleurone layers. Previous work has demonstrated de novo synthesis of alpha-amylase by gibberellic acid in the same tissue. The increase in nitrate reductase activity is inhibited by cycloheximide and 6-methylpurine, but not by actinomycin D. Nitrate does not induce alpha-amylase synthesis, an...
Preliminary work revealed that nitrate reductase in crude extracts prepared from leaves of certain corn genotypes as well as soybeans could utilize NADPH as well as NADH as the electron donor. Isoelectric focusing and diethylaminoethyl cellulose chromatography confirmed previous findings that NADH and NADPH activities could not be separated, which suggests the involvement of a single enzyme. Ni...
Mycobacterium tuberculosis is one of the strongest reducers of nitrate in the genus Mycobacterium: Under microaerobic conditions, whole cells exhibit upregulation of activity, producing approximately eightfold more nitrite than those of aerobic cultures of the same age. Assays of cell extracts from aerobic cultures and hypoxic cultures yielded comparable nitrate reductase activities. Mycobacter...
