Carbon dioxide is a green house gas that exists in earth’s atmosphere. In recent decade’s due to increment of population and rapid industrialization, the amount of CO2 has increased significantly and has caused global warming and other problems. Different methods are used for reduction of CO2 concentration in air one method is storing CO2 gas below the ground, but this manner doesn’t provide a ...

Immature detached cereal caryopses from barley (Hordeum vulgare L. var distichum cv Midas) and wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv Sicco) were shown to be capable of fixing externally supplied"'CO2 in the light or dark. Green cross cells and the testa contained the majority of the 14Clabeled material. Some "4C-labeled material was also found in the outer, or transparent, layer and in the endosperm/e...

Immature detached cereal caryopses from barley (Hordeum vulgare L. var distichum cv Midas) and wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv Sicco) were shown to be capable of fixing externally supplied (14)CO(2) in the light or dark. Green cross cells and the testa contained the majority of the (14)C-labeled material. Some (14)C-labeled material was also found in the outer, or transparent, layer and in the e...

High-latitude oceans are areas of high primary production despite temperatures that are often well below the thermal optima of enzymes, including the key Calvin Cycle enzyme, Ribulose 1,5 bisphosphate carboxylase oxygenase (Rubisco). We measured carbon fixation rates, protein content and Rubisco abundance and catalytic rates during an intense diatom bloom in the Western Antarctic Peninsula (WAP...

Photosynthesis in green plants requires not only photoelectron transport, oxygen evolution, and photophosphorylation, but also the synthetic reactions whereby carbon dioxide is assimilated and reduced to a number of organic compounds via the photosynthetic carbon reduction cycle1 and secondary biosynthetic pathways.2 Complete photosynthesis with isolated chloroplasts has for many years been a g...

Upon intracarotid administration of ammonia to cats, there is a significant increase of cerebral glutamine without a corresponding decrease in the level of cerebral glutamic acid (3). Similar observations in dogs have been reported by others (4). Since the supply of glutamic acid from the circulating blood is insufficient for the formation of the additional amount of glutamine, the dicarboxylic...
