Purification and molecular characterization of the electron transfer protein of methanesulfonic acid monooxygenase.
A novel serine pathway methylotroph, strain M2, capable of utilizing methanesulfonic acid (MSA) as a sole source of carbon and energy was investigated. The initial step in the biodegradative pathway of MSA in strain M2 involved an inducible NADH-specific monooxygenase enzyme (MSAMO). Fractionation of MSAMO active cell extracts by ion-exchange chromatography led to the loss of MSAMO activity. Ac...
متن کاملCatalyzed sulfonation of methane to methanesulfonic acid
Direct sulfonation of methane with SO3 to methanesulfonic acid (MSA) and methylbisulfate was investigated in sulfuric acid using Hg(I), Hg(II), and Rh(III)-salts as catalysts. O2 was found to be an important component for the regeneration of the catalyst. The effects of O2 pressure, temperature, SO3 concentration, methane pressure, and catalyst concentration were examined on the rates of SO3 co...
متن کاملNutrient Metabolism Somatotropin-Induced Amino Acid Conservation in Pigs Involves Differential Regulation of Liver and Gut Urea Cycle Enzyme Activity
Somatotropin (ST) treatment promotes animal growth and allows for the conservation of amino acids by increasing nitrogen retention and reducing ureagenesis and amino acid oxidation. To determine whether the improvement in amino acid conservation with ST treatment involves regulation of urea cycle enzyme activities in both liver and intestine, growing swine were treated with either ST (150 g kg ...
متن کاملRatiometric fluorescence response of N-methylacridone for methanesulfonic acid.
A new method for the sensitive and selective determination of stronger acids, such as methanesulfonic acid, based on an acid-base interaction with N-methylacridone fluorophore (1), is proposed. The fluorescence spectrum of 1 was changed drastically by the addition of methanesulfonic acid in methanol. A ratiometric analysis of methanesulfonic acid by measuring the fluorescence intensities of 1 b...
متن کاملCytochrome P450-dependent monooxygenase system mediated hydrocarbon metabolism and antioxidant enzyme responses in prawn, Macrobrachium malcolmsonii.
We investigated the alteration of cytochrome P450-dependent monooxygenase enzymes and antioxidant enzymes in response to oil effluent in freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium malcolmsonii. The prawns were exposed to two sublethal (10% [0.91 ppt] and 25% [2.3 ppt] of 5-day median lethal concentration) concentrations of oil. After 30 days, treated prawns were transferred into untreated freshwater and d...
