Nitrate uptake, nitrite release and uptake, and new production estimates
Excretion of nitrite during nitrate assimilation by phytoplankton is examined in relation to estimates of new production. Evidence from the literature indicates that nitrite excretion is exhibited by a wide variety of phytoplankton species in cultures and can represent up to 25, 45 and 50"0 of nitrate uptake in Thalassiosira pseudonana, Prorocentrum minimum and Skeletonema costa turn respective...
متن کاملComparative analysis of nitrite uptake and hemoglobin-nitrite reactions in erythrocytes: sorting out uptake mechanisms and oxygenation dependencies.
Nitrite uptake into red blood cells (RBCs) precedes its intracellular reactions with hemoglobin (Hb) that forms nitric oxide (NO) during hypoxia. We investigated the uptake of nitrite and its reactions with Hb at different oxygen saturations (So(2)), using RBCs with (carp and rabbit) and without (hagfish and lamprey) anion exchanger-1 (AE1) in the membrane, with the aim to unravel the mechanism...
متن کاملCombined effects of PEGylation and particle size on uptake of PLGA particles by macrophage cells
Objective:At the present study, relationship between phagocytosis of PLGA particles and combined effects of particle size and surface PEGylation was investigated. Materials and Methods:Microspheres and nanospheres (3500 nm and 700 nm) were prepared from three types of PLGA polymers (non-PEGylated and PEGylation percents of 9% and 15%). These particles were prepared by solvent evaporation metho...
متن کاملUptake of nitrite by Neurospora crassa.
Like the nitrate transport system, the nitrite uptake system in Neurospora crassa is induced by either nitrate or nitrite. This induction is prevented by cycloheximide, puromycin, or 6-methyl purine. The K(m) for nitrite of the induced nitrite uptake system is 86 muM, and the V(max) is 100 mumol of nitrite per g (wet weight) per h. Nitrite uptake is inhibited by metabolic poisons such as arsena...
متن کاملNitrite uptake and metabolism and oxidant stress in human erythrocytes.
Nitric oxide, when released into the bloodstream, is quickly scavenged by Hb in erythrocytes or oxidized to nitrite. Nitrite can also enter erythrocytes and oxidize Hb. The goals of this work were to determine the mechanism of erythrocyte nitrite uptake and whether this uptake causes oxidant stress in these cells. Erythrocytes took up 0.8 mM nitrite with a half-time of 11 min. Nitrite uptake wa...
