Thermotropic Properties of Thermophilic, Mesophilic, and Psychrophilic Blue-green Algae.
Thermotropic properties of blue-green algae grown at high, room, and low temperatures in H(2)O and D(2)O media were studied by highly sensitive differential scanning microcalorimetry. The thermograms of these organisms contain an endothermal peak in the temperature range of 50 to 70 C with an endothermal heat ranging from 0.14 to 1.91 joules per gram organism. The temperature at which the endot...
متن کاملPteridines in blue green algae.
The presence of a remarkably high concentration of pteridiineS in the blue green alga, Anacystis nidulanis 5, wvas demonstrated by Forrest, van Baalen, and Myers in 1957 (2). A number of (lifferent pteridines were then isolated and ideentifie(l. These included 2-amino-4-hydroxypteridine, 2,6-diamino-4-hydroxypteridline (10), a yellow pteridine assigned the structure 2-aimino-4-hydroxv-6-propion...
متن کاملRespiration in blue-green algae.
The low rate of endogenous respiration exhibited by the blue-green algae Anacystis nidulans and Phormidium luridum was not increased by the addition of respiratory substrates. However, endogenous respiration was inhibited by low concentrations of cyanide and by high carbon monoxide tensions. In addition, the uncouplers dinitrophenol and carbonyl cyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone both st...
متن کاملUltrastructure of blue-green algae.
Two freshwater blue-green algae, Tolypothrix tenuis and Fremyella diplosiphon, and an oscillatorialike marine alga, were found to possess structures on the photosynthetic lamellae which appear to correspond to the phycobilisomes of red algae. These homologous structures are important because they contain the phycobilins which are accessory pigments involved in photosynthesis. As in the red alga...
متن کاملNitrogen fixation by thermophilic blue-green algae (cyanobacteria): temperature characteristics and potential use in biophotolysis.
Thermophilic, nitrogen-fixing, blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) were investigated for use in biophotolysis. Three strains of Mastigocladus laminosus were tested and were found to be equally effective in biophotolysis as judged by nitrogenase activity. The alga, M. laminosus NZ-86-m, which was chosen for further study, grew well in the temperature range from 35 to 50 degrees C, with optimum grow...
