Cytochemical Localization of Dehydrogenase and Diaphorase Activity in Bacillus Megaterium
Received for publication, April 9, 1960. higher organisms. The bacterial cytoplasm consists of granules, about 20 m/~ in diameter, which contain numerous enzymes of the electron transport system of the cell (1) and which were shown to carry out oxidative phosphorylation (2). Attempts of Mudd et al. (3) and others to visualize mitochondria-like bodies by means of intravital reduction of tetrazol...
متن کاملEnzyme localization in Bacillus megaterium.
Weibull (1953a) has shown that after osmotic lysis of protoplasts of Bacillus megaterium, prepared by controlled treatment with lysozyme, only two microscopically detectable structures remain; membrane-like bodies termed "ghosts," and granules. The ghosts were found to sediment as a dark yellow fraction by centrifugation at 10,000 G (Weibull, 1953b) and to contain almost all the pigmented mater...
متن کاملRecombinant expression, characterization and application of a dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase with diaphorase activity from Bacillus sphaericus
Diaphorases are flavin-containing enzymes with potential applications in biotransfomation reactions, biosensor design and in vitro diagnostic tests. In this communication, we describe recombinant expression, characterization and application of a lipoamide dehydrogenase (DLD) with diaphorase activity from a strain of Bacillus sphaericus. The DLD gene consisting of 1413 bp encoding a protein of 4...
متن کاملCytochemical localization of glycolate dehydrogenase in mitochondria of chlamydomonas.
Mildly disrupted cells of Chlamydomonas reinhardi Dangeard were incubated in a reaction medium containing glycolate, ferricyanide, and cupric ions, and then processed for electron microscopy. As a result of the cytochemical treatment, an electron opaque product was deposited specifically in the outer compartment of mitochondria; other cellular components, including microbodies, did not accumula...
متن کاملCytochemical Localization of Lactic Dehydrogenase in White Skeletal Muscle
The limitations of the conventional histochemical methods for localization of lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) in white skeletal muscle have been analyzed quantitatively. It is demonstrated that more than 80 per cent of LDH diffuses into the incubation medium within the first 10 minutes of incubation. Furthermore, it is confirmed that the addition of phenazine methosulfate (PMS) to the ingredients of...
