چکیده

We report herein the isolation and complete characterization of a member of the chlorophyll c family, designated as [8-ethyl]-chlorophyll c(3) ([8-ethyl]-chl c(3)). Structural elucidation of this pigment rested on the analysis of mono- and bidimensional NMR, UV-VIS spectroscopy and ESI-MS data, and the configuration at the 13(2) position on chiral HPLC analysis.

The complete plastid genome sequence of the haptophyte Emiliania huxleyi: a comparison to other plastid genomes.

The complete nucleotide sequence of the plastid genome of the haptophyte Emiliania huxleyi has been determined. E. huxleyi is the most abundant coccolithophorid and has a key role in the carbon cycle. It is also implicated in the production of dimethylsulphide (DMS), which is involved in cloud nucleation and may affect the global climate. Here, we report the plastid genome sequence of this ecol...

Isolation and molecular phylogenetic analysis of actin-coding regions from Emiliania huxleyi, a Prymnesiophyte alga, by reverse transcriptase and PCR methods.

Reverse transcriptase and polymerase chain reaction methods were used to amplify and clone actin cDNAs from the chlorophylls a + C-containing unicellular alga, Emiliania huxleyi (Prymnesiophyta). Actins in E. huxleyi are defined by a gene family containing at least six distinct coding regions that were derived from relatively recent gene duplications. Five of the coding regions (types 1, 2, and...

Physiological responses of lipids in Emiliania huxleyi and Gephyrocapsa oceanica (Haptophyceae) to growth status and their implications for alkenone paleothermometry

The physiological responses of alkenone unsaturation indices to changes in growth status of E. huxleyi and G. oceanica strains isolated from a water sample of the NW Paci®c were examined using an isothermal batch culture system. In both E. huxleyi and G. oceanica the unsaturation index U37 K0 changed during the growth period, but the e€ects of this change were di€erent. This suggests that genot...

Change in Emiliania huxleyi Virus Assemblage Diversity but Not in Host Genetic Composition during an Ocean Acidification Mesocosm Experiment

Effects of elevated pCO₂ on Emiliania huxleyi genetic diversity and the viruses that infect E. huxleyi (EhVs) have been investigated in large volume enclosures in a Norwegian fjord. Triplicate enclosures were bubbled with air enriched with CO₂ to 760 ppmv whilst the other three enclosures were bubbled with air at ambient pCO₂; phytoplankton growth was initiated by the addition of nitrate and ph...

Inherent optical properties of the coccolithophore: Emiliania huxleyi.

A realistic nonspherical model for Emiliania huxleyi (EHUX) is built, based on electron micrographs of coccolithophore cells. The Inherent Optical Properties (IOP) of the EHUX are then calculated numerically by using the discrete dipole approximation. The coccolithophore model includes a near-spherical core with the refractive index of 1.04 + m(i)j, and a carbonate shell formed by smaller cocco...
