Mutants of Azotobacter which grow normally on excess ammonia under a variety of conditions and which grow slowly or not at all on atmospheric nitrogen have been isolated. Extracts of these strains have low or no detectable nitrogenase activity. There are three classes of mutants. Cell-free preparations of members of the first class possess an enhancement factor (EF+) which stimulates wild-type ...
Streptomyces thermoautotrophicus UBT1 has been described as a moderately thermophilic chemolithoautotroph with a novel nitrogenase enzyme that is oxygen-insensitive. We have cultured the UBT1 strain, and have isolated two new strains (H1 and P1-2) of very similar phenotypic and genetic characters. These strains show minimal growth on ammonium-free media, and fail to incorporate isotopically lab...
The control of nitrogenase recovery from inactivation by oxygen was studied in Anabaena sp. strain CA (ATCC 33047). Nitrogenase activity (acetylene reduction) in cultures grown in 1% CO2 in air was inhibited by exposure to 1% CO2-99% O2 and allowed to recover in the presence of high oxygen tensions. Cultures exposed to hyperbaric levels of oxygen in the presence of 10 mM NH4NO3 were incapable o...
I have measured acetylene diffusion through plant tissues including nodules from several species of legume-vetch, peas, soybeans, and Sesbania rostrata. The observed half-time for reequilibration of internal and external concentration is less than 1 minute for typical nodules. Inward diffusion of acetylene in air is rapid relative to the use of acetylene by nitrogenase so that diffusion of acet...
Partial male-sterile (ms(4)/ms(4)) soybeans (Glycine max L. Merr.) and their fertile isoline (Ms(4)/Ms(4)) were grown in adjoining field plots. From 62 until 92 days after emergence, the nitrogenase activity, assayed by acetylene reduction, of the average male-sterile plant was approximately twice that of the average fertile plant. At approximately 100 days after emergence, the assayable nitrog...
Nitrogenase activity (C2H2 reduction) was demonstrated in seedlings of wheat roots bearing para-nodules induced by 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and inoculated with Azospirillum brasilense. Increased nitrogenase activity was observed in inoculated para-nodulated seedlings as compared to inoculated roots not treated by 2,4-D under the conditions of assay used. 2,4-D had no stimulating e...
The effect of boron on nitrogenase activity has been studied. When cells were dependent on N(2) fixation, the lack of boron inhibited nitrogenase activity. However, under anaerobic conditions or in the presence of Na-dithionite this effect was not observed. Nitrogenase synthesis was not affected by boron deficiency. Similarly, the heterocyst number was not altered. Examination of boron-deficien...
Klebsiella pneumoniae does not fix N(2) under aerobic conditions. The two protein components required for nitrogenase activity were studied during aeration of cells in nitrogen-free media. Component II of nitrogenase was inactivated more slowly in vivo than component I during aeration. The rate of loss of component II was less than the rate of component II synthesis during derepression. No inac...
The reduction of nitrogen, acetylene, azide, and cyanide at various oxygen concentrations by nitrogenase from Azotobacter vinelandii was measured with a well-defined system. Oxygen inhibited the reduction of each substrate uncompetitively. The inhibition constants (K(i)) were 0.014, 0.023, 0.008, and 0.003 atm of oxygen for reduction of nitrogen, acetylene, azide, and cyanide, respectively. The...
