phosphorus solubilizing microorganisms are capable of transforming insoluble phosphorus (p) forms to soluble and bioavailable p. the aim of the present study was to isolate p solubilizing bacteria from forest soils around the rock phosphate (rp) mine of koh-e-sepidlar in kohgiluyeh and boyer ahmad province and evaluate their ability in sperber culture medium and wheat straw medium in the presen...

phosphorus (p) is one of the most vital elements for all living organisms which acts as aconstituent of essential biomolecules such as nucleic acids, phospholipids, and phosphosugars,and as a major contributor to almost all metabolic reactions including photosynthesis,respiration, and energy delivery. it is one of the most needed nutrients for plant growth anddevelopment. despite high levels of...

glucose 6- phosphate dehydrogenase from streptomyces aureofaciens was purified andinactivated by pyridoxal 5′-phosphate (plp). the inactivation was a pseudo-first order and time-dependentreaction. complete inactivation was achieved at 0.2mm plp within 16 minutes. the type of inhibition wascompetitive with respect to glucose 6- phosphate. spectral characteristics of plp-enzyme complexcorresponde...

interaction of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase from s. aureofaciens with nad+, nadp+and glucose 6-phosphate were investigated using different fluorescent probes. binding of nad+, nadp+and s-nadph to the native enzyme quenched intrinsic protein fluorescence by 100%, 10% and 21%,respectively, from which kd values of nad+ (6.5 mm), nadp+ (92.0 μm) and s-nadph (122.0 μm)were calculated. binding o...

calcium acetate is used as an oral phosphate binder to control hyperphosphatemia in patients with chronic renal failure. compared to calcium carbonate, control of hyperphosphatemia can be achieved at lower calcium administration with calcium acetate which likely reduces the risk of hypercalcemia. in this study, various formulations of calcium acetate tablets were prepared and their disintegrati...

inoculation of phosphate-solubilizing microorganisms along with rock phosphate is known to enhance the available p from soil. the success of such solubilization is largely dependent on the ability of the inoculant strain to survive under adverse environmental conditions. in this context, liquid inoculants are gaining importance and are becoming popular with longer shelf-life. in the present inv...

some kinetic properties of nad+- and nadp+- dependent glucose 6-phosphatedehydrogenase (g6pd) purified from streptomyces aureofaciens were studied. both nadh andnadph inhibited the enzyme competitively and noncompetitively, with respect to the correspondingcoenzymes and glucose 6-phosphate, respectively. atp inhibited the nad+ - linked reaction but not thatof the nadp+- linked activity. the inh...
