In vivo effect to uncoupler CCCP on nitrogenase of Anabaena sp. CH1 and CH2.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Uncoupler CCCP inhibited the growth of Anabaena sp. CH1 and CH2 and reduced their photosynthetic rate and nitrogenase activity. It was determined that upon CCCP addition, nitrogenase activities of CH1 and CH2 declined to almost zero within 1 and 6 hours. Such decline may be caused by the direct inhibition of nitrogenase synthesis rather than by indirect interruption of the phosphorylation process.

Nitrogen starvation mediated by DL-7-azatryptophan in the cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. strain CA.
The addition of DL-7-azatryptophan (AZAT), a tryptophan analog, to continuous cultures of Anabaena sp. strain CA grown with 10 mM nitrate as the nitrogen source resulted in the differentiation of heterocysts. Analysis of the intracellular amino acid pools of Anabaena sp. strain CA after the addition of AZAT showed a marked decline in the intracellular glutamate pool and a slight increase in the...

This study examined the effects of the supplementation of China rose powder of Hibiscus rosasiensis towards blue gourami with different stocking densities.China rose (1.5%) was used on two different stocking densities (20 and 30 fishes per aquarium). The group that contain a total of 20 (individual/aquarium) and 30 (individual/aquarium) densities of fishes, are referred as CH1 and CH2 respectiv...
متن کاملControl of Nitrogenase mRNA Levels by Products of Nitrate Assimilation in the Cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. Strain PCC 7120.
Nitrate inhibited nitrogenase synthesis and heterocyst development in the cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120. Inhibition of dinitrogen fixation by nitrate did not take place, however, in nitrate reductase-deficient derivatives of this strain. Hybridization of total RNA isolated from cells grown on different nitrogen sources with an internal fragment of the nifD gene showed that regulat...
متن کاملIn Vivo Nitrogenase Regulation by Ammonium and Methylamine and the Effect of MSX on Ammonium Transport in Anabaena flos-aquae.
Ammonium suppresses nitrogenase activity in Anabaena flos-aquae (Lyng) Breb. at all pH values tested. l-Methionine-dl-sulfoximine at 1 millimolar totally inhibited glutamine synthetase, and 10 micromolar partially inhibited. Both concentrations protected nitrogenase activity from ammonium-induced suppression at pH 7.1 and 8.1. At pH 9.3 and 10.2, methionine sulfoximine did not alleviate the sup...
متن کاملSynthesis of nitrogenase and heterocysts by Anabaena sp. CA in the presence of high levels of ammonia.
Anabaena sp. CA fails to synthesize heterocysts and nitrogenase when grown with KNO3 as the nitrogen source. By contrast, both heterocysts and proheterocysts are synthesized in NH4Cl-containing media to a level nearly commensurate with cells grown in the absence of combined nitrogen. The growth rate of the organism in NH4Cl-containing media was similar to that obtained with KNO3 as the nitrogen...
