متن کاملShort-term nitrate (nitrite) inhibition of nitrogen fixation in Azotobacter chroococcum.
Nitrate-grown Azotobacter chroococcum ATCC 4412 cells lack the ability to fix N2. Nitrogenase activity developed after the cells were suspended in a combined nitrogen-free medium and was paralleled by a concomitant decrease in nitrate assimilation capacity. In such treated cells exhibiting transitory nitrate assimilation and N2-fixation capacity, nitrate or nitrite caused a short-term inhibitor...
متن کاملThe vanadium nitrogenase of Azotobacter chroococcum
1. Nitrogenase activity of a strain of Azotobacter chroococcum lacking the structural genes of Monitrogenase (nifHDK) was associated with a V+Fe-containing protein and an Fe-containing protein [Robson, Eady, Richardson, Miller, Hawkins & Postgate (1986) Nature (London) 322, 388-390; Eady, Robson, Richardson, Miller & Hawkins (1987) Biochem. J. 244, 197-207]. 2. The Fe protein was purifed to hom...
متن کاملInhibition of nitrate transporter 1.1-controlled nitrate uptake reduces cadmium uptake in Arabidopsis.
Identification of mechanisms that decrease cadmium accumulation in plants is a prerequisite for minimizing dietary uptake of cadmium from contaminated crops. Here, we show that cadmium inhibits nitrate transporter 1.1 (NRT1.1)-mediated nitrate (NO3 (-)) uptake in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) and impairs NO3 (-) homeostasis in roots. In NO3 (-)-containing medium, loss of NRT1.1 function in...
متن کاملInhibition of nitrogenase activity by ammonium chloride in Azotobacter vinelandii.
In Azotobacter vinelandii cells, the short-term inhibition of nitrogenase activity by NH4Cl was found to depend on several factors. The first factor is the dissolved oxygen concentration during the assay of nitrogenase. When cells are incubated with low concentrations of oxygen, nitrogenase activity is low and ammonia inhibits strongly. With more oxygen, nitrogenase activity increases. Cells in...
