Tricarboxylic Acid Cycle Enzymes and Morphogenesis in Blastocladiella emersonii

Intracellular distribution of tricarboxylic acid cycle enzymes in Azotobacter vinelandii.

The cytological complexity of the bacterial cell is well established, but little information is as yet available on the association of metabolic function with cellular structure in microorganisms. The significance of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle and the electron transport system in the metabolism of the obligate aerobic azotobacter cell makes important a knowledge of the intracellular dis...

Tricarboxylic Acid Cycle in

Tricarboxylic acid cycle enzymes of the ectomycorrhizal basidiomycete, Suillus bovinus.

In crude cell extracts of the ectomycorrhizal fungus, Suillus bovinus, activities of citrate synthase, aconitase, isocitrate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, fumarase, and malate dehydrogenase have been proved and analyzed. Citrate synthase exhibited high affinities for both its substrates: oxaloacetate (Km = 0.018 mM) and acetyl-CoA (Km = 0.014 mM). Aconitase showed better affinity for ...

Enzymes in Candida albicans. II. Tricarboxylic acid cycle and related enzymes.

Bacteriol. 84:778-783. 1962.-Evidence is presented to show the operation of the tricarboxylic acid cycle in Candida albicans, by studies with whole cells, cell-free preparations, and by the demonstration of most of th...

Distribution of tricarboxylic acid cycle enzymes and glyoxylate cycle enzymes between mitochondria and peroxisomes in Tetrahymena pyriformis.

Tetrahymena Pyriformis cells were grown axenically, harvested in the stationary phase of the cultures when the organism is glyconeogenetically active, homogenized, and fractionated either by isopycnic density gradient centrifugation in a sucrose gradient or by zonal differential sedimentation through a sucrose gradient. Protein and enzyme determinations carried out on the fractions led to the f...
