Cyanophycin granule polypeptide formation and degradation in the cyanobacterium Aphanocapsa 6308.
The effect of a number of conditions on the amount of cyanophycin granule polypeptide [multi-L-arginyl poly(L-aspartic acid)] formed in the unicellular cyanobacterium Aphanocapsa 6308 was determined. Light, CO2, sulfur, and phosphorus starvation as well as the addition of arginine to culture media increased the amount of cyanophycin granule polypeptide in cells when compared with that in cells ...
متن کاملMeasurement of the cyanophycin granule polypeptide contained in the blue-green alga Anabaena cylindrica.
An assay was developed to determine the amount of cyanophycin granules in blue-green algae. The amount of this polypeptide in cells of Anabaena cylindrica was measured as a function of culture age and was compared with changes in other proteinaceous cellular components. The data presented support the notion that the cyanophycin granule is a cellular nitrogen reserve.
متن کاملSize Variation in Streptococcal
Streptococcal M protein, the fibrillar molecule on the surface of the group A streptococcus, is considered to be one of the major factors responsible for the ability of this human pathogen to cause disease (1). Though type-specific opsonic antibodies directed towards the M molecule enable the infected host to clear the invading streptococcus (1, 2), the ability of this organism to vary its anti...
متن کاملEstablishment of cyanophycin biosynthesis in Pichia pastoris and optimization by use of engineered cyanophycin synthetases.
Two strains of the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris were used to establish cyanophycin (multi-L-arginyl-poly-L-aspartic acid [CGP]) synthesis and to explore the applicability of this industrially widely used microorganism for the production of this polyamide. Therefore, the CGP synthetase gene from the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. strain PCC 6308 (cphA(6308)) was expressed under the con...
متن کاملInfluence of Extrinsic Factors on Granule Size in Uasb Reactor
The aim of this paper is to synthesize and analyze information on how the process of granulation is affected by environmental and operational conditions in the reactor. Various factors affecting granulation process as gleaned from the literature are organic loading rate (OLR), upflow velocity (Vup), sludge volume index (SVI), specific methenogenic activity (SMA), VSS/SS ratio, liquid in flow ra...
