Regulation of Sulfate Assimilation by Nitrogen Nutrition in the Duckweed Lemna minor L.
The effect of nitrate and ammonium on the extractable activity of two enzymes of assimilatory sulfate reduction, ATP sulfurylase (EC 2.7.7.4) and adenosine 5'-phosphosulfate sulfotransferase (APSSTase), was examined in Lemna minor L. cultivated under steady state conditions. Nitrate reductase (EC 1.6.6.1) was measured for comparison. Low nitrate concentrations (0.2 and 0.04 millimolar) caused a...
متن کاملGrowth and photosynthesis of Lemna minor L. exposed to different light conditions and sucrose supplies
Duckweed (Lemna minor L.) is a model plant suitable for investigation into plant physiology, biochemistry and ecotoxicology. Depending on the type of the experiment, duckweed is cultivated on different nutrient media under various chamber conditions. In our work, duckweed was cultivated on Pirson-Seidel’s nutrient solution supplemented with 5, 7.5 or 10 g L–1 sucrose under cool white (CW) or Gr...
متن کاملThe control of sulphate reduction in Escherichia coli by O-acetyl-L-serine.
1. Extracts of Escherichia coli A.T.C.C. 9723 and K(12)703 contain serine transacetylase and O-acetylserine sulphhydrase. Synthesis of the latter enzyme is repressed by growth on l-cyst(e)ine and other sulphur compounds. 2. O-Acetyl-l-serine added to cells growing on glutathione or sulphate as source of sulphur induces the enzymes that catalyse (a) the activation of sulphate to adenosine 3'-pho...
متن کاملInteraction of sulfate assimilation with carbon and nitrogen metabolism in Lemna minor.
Cysteine synthesis from sulfide and O-acetyl-L-serine (OAS) is a reaction interconnecting sulfate, nitrogen, and carbon assimilation. Using Lemna minor, we analyzed the effects of omission of CO(2) from the atmosphere and simultaneous application of alternative carbon sources on adenosine 5'-phosphosulfate reductase (APR) and nitrate reductase (NR), the key enzymes of sulfate and nitrate assimi...
متن کاملTitration of Isolated Cell Walls of Lemna minor L.
A theoretical model has been built to bypass the equation of titration of the cell wall. This equation, which is an extension of the Henderson-Hasselbach equation, underlines the importance of the exchange constant, the ionic strength as well as the rate of neutralization. The model is restricted to the case when the ionization degree is equal to the neutralization degree. The shape of the titr...
