An investigation of the metabolism of poly-β-hydroxybutyrate and its possible role in nitrogen fixation in soybean root nodules

Creator:: Wong, Peter Pasteur, 1941-
Abstract:: A major objective of this investigation was to determine the possible roles, if any, of poly-β-hydroxybutyrate and products of its metabolic breakdown in symbiotic nitrogen fixation by nodule bacteroids. Changes in poly -β- hydroxybutyrate content and in activities of nitrogenase, β-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase, and isocitrate lyase were studied under various conditions...

A biochemical investigation of the nitrogenase system from soybean root nodules

Creator:: Koch, Burton Lee
Abstract:: The primary purpose of this investigation was to determine the conditions necessary for the preparation of cell-free extracts of nodule bacteroids capable of catalysing the reduction of acetylene to ethylene and nitrogen to ammonia. Initial investigations were conducted to determine whether intact soybean root nodules would reduce acetylene to ethylene...

The effects of univalent cations on the inductive formation of nitrate reductase

Creator:: Nitsos, Ronald Eugene
Abstract:: An investigation was undertaken to determine whether potassium is indeed necessary for the in vivo synthesis of a specific protein. The effects of univalent cations on the inductive formation of nitrate reductase and on the level of activity of representative non-adaptive enzyme are presented. Cultures of Neurospora crassa were grown...

Propionate metabolism and its relationship to leghemoglobin biosynthesis in soybean nodules

Creator:: Jackson, Earl Kenneth
Abstract:: Experiments are reported which demonstrate that a cobalt deficiency in R. meliloti results in a decreased cytochrome content of bacterial cells. It is concluded that the effect of cobalt deficiency on cytochrome content of Rhizobium cells and on the leghemoglobin content of nodules possibly may be explained by an effect...

Investigations into the physiology of nitrogen fixation : Part I. Nickel metabolism of plants and bacteria : Part II. Peroxide scavenging in soybean root nodules

Creator:: Dalton, David Andrews
Abstract:: PART I. The concentration of nickel in some soils may be insufficient to meet the requirements of enzymes such as urease in soybeans and hydrogenase in Rhizobium. Nickel availability in soils was examined by measuring microbial urease activity in soils which were treated with glucose and urea. Supplemental nickel was...
