Fatty acids in phospholipids of cells, cysts, and germinating cysts of Azotobacter vinelandii.
Cyclopropane fatty acids constitute 25% of the phospholipid acyl groups in cysts of Azotobacter vinelandii. These are lost by dilution during germination when the synthesis of the fatty acids characteristic of vegetative cell phospholipids commences.
متن کاملPlasmids of Azotobacter vinelandii.
Four laboratory strains and two isolates of Azotobacter vinelandii were found to contain plasmids. Twenty-five laboratory strains which could fix nitrogen did not have free, covalently closed circular plasmid DNA. The plasmids varied in size from 9 to 52 megadaltons, and each strain yielded only one plasmid. No discernible differences in ability to fix nitrogen were found between plasmid-bearin...
متن کاملUltrastructure of Azotobacter vinelandii.
Vegetative cells and cysts of Azotobacter vinelandii 12837 were prepared for electron microscopy by several methods assumed to preserve structural details destroyed by techniques previously reported in the literature. Examination of large numbers of cells and cysts by these methods revealed four structural details not reported previously: intine fibrils, intine vesicles, intine membrane, and mi...
متن کاملGiant cysts and cysts with multiple central bodies in Azotobacter vinelandii.
Cyst germination in Azotobacter vinelandii ATCC 12837 was studied by using phase contrast and electron microscopy. Germination in this organism was accompanied by the formation of large cyst forms of two different types: giant cysts and cysts containing multiple central bodies. Previously, these two types have been reported only when yeast extract was added to the encystment medium. In this stu...
متن کاملGenes in Azotobacter vinelandii
Azotobacter vinelandii contains a heterodimeric, membrane-bound [NiFelhydrogenase capable of catalyzing the reversible oxidation of H2. The 13 and at subunits of the enzyme are encoded by the structural genes hoxK and hoxG, respectively, which appear to form part of an operon that contains at least one further potential gene (open reading frame 3 1ORF3]). In this study, determination of the nuc...
