Thermal adaptation in biological membranes: is homeoviscous adaptation the explanation?
The phase behavior and physical properties of lipids in biological membranes are exquisitely sensitive to changes in temperature (50). Because membranes (a) act as physical barriers to solute diffusion, (b) mediate the transmembrane movement of specific solutes, (c) regulate the utilization of energy stored in transmembrane ion gradients, Cd) provide an organizing matrix for the assem bly of m...
متن کاملMembrane homeoviscous adaptation in the piezo-hyperthermophilic archaeon Thermococcus barophilus
The archaeon Thermococcus barophilus, one of the most extreme members of hyperthermophilic piezophiles known thus far, is able to grow at temperatures up to 103°C and pressures up to 80 MPa. We analyzed the membrane lipids of T. barophilus by high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry as a function of pressure and temperature. In contrast to previous reports, we show that under op...
متن کاملEffects of prebiotic Immunogen on growth performance, intestinal bacteria colonization, and survival rate in Rutilus kutum fry
This study was carried out to determine the effects of Immunogen as a prebiotic on growth-related parameters and gut micro-flora in R. kutum fry. A basal diet was formulated using common feed ingredients supplemented with Immunogen at 0, 1, 1.5, and 2 g kg-1 leading to four experimental diets. Fish were randomly distributed in 500 L fiberglass tanks (1×1×0.5 m). The experiment lasted for eight ...
متن کاملa study on rate making and required reserves determination in reinsurance market: a simulation
reinsurance is widely recognized as an important instrument in the capital management of an insurance company as well as its risk management tool. this thesis is intended to determine premium rates for different types of reinsurance policies. also, given the fact that the reinsurance coverage of every company depends upon its reserves, so different types of reserves and the method of their calc...
Growth-rate-dependent partitioning of RNA polymerases in bacteria.
Physiological changes that result in changes in bacterial gene expression are often accompanied by changes in the growth rate for fast adapting enteric bacteria. Because the availability of RNA polymerase (RNAP) in cells depends on the growth rate, transcriptional control involves not only the regulation of promoters, but also depends on the available (or free) RNAP concentration, which is diff...
