Nitrogen Fixation by Azotobacter vinelandii
Nitrogenase was isolated and purified from wildtype and a tungsten-resistant mutant (LM2) of Azotobacter vinelandii strain OP derepressed on medium containing 1-10 mM W. While the enzyme from the wild-type strain contained the polypeptides of the conventional enzyme, metal analysis of component 1 demonstrated the existence of one atom each of molybdenum and tungsten. Furthermore, the ESR spectr...
متن کاملPlasmids of Azotobacter vinelandii.
Four laboratory strains and two isolates of Azotobacter vinelandii were found to contain plasmids. Twenty-five laboratory strains which could fix nitrogen did not have free, covalently closed circular plasmid DNA. The plasmids varied in size from 9 to 52 megadaltons, and each strain yielded only one plasmid. No discernible differences in ability to fix nitrogen were found between plasmid-bearin...
متن کاملUltrastructure of Azotobacter vinelandii.
Vegetative cells and cysts of Azotobacter vinelandii 12837 were prepared for electron microscopy by several methods assumed to preserve structural details destroyed by techniques previously reported in the literature. Examination of large numbers of cells and cysts by these methods revealed four structural details not reported previously: intine fibrils, intine vesicles, intine membrane, and mi...
متن کاملGenes in Azotobacter vinelandii
Azotobacter vinelandii contains a heterodimeric, membrane-bound [NiFelhydrogenase capable of catalyzing the reversible oxidation of H2. The 13 and at subunits of the enzyme are encoded by the structural genes hoxK and hoxG, respectively, which appear to form part of an operon that contains at least one further potential gene (open reading frame 3 1ORF3]). In this study, determination of the nuc...
متن کاملCharacterization of Azotobacter vinelandii deoxyribonucleic acid and folded chromosomes.
The properties of Azotobacter vinelandii deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and folded chromosomes were studied and compared to those of Escherichia coli as a standard. Based on melting temperature and buoyant density measurements, the guanosine + cytosine content of purified A. vinelandii DNA was 65%, whereas that of E. coli DNA was 50%. The results of renaturation studies showed that the unique DNA ...
