Gene transfers shaped the evolution of de novo NAD+ biosynthesis in eukaryotes
(Oxford University Press, 2014-08-27)
NAD+ is an essential molecule for life, present in each living cell. It can function as an electron carrier or cofactor in redox biochemistry and energetics, and serves as substrate to generate the secondary messenger ...
Arhodomonas sp. strain Seminole and its genetic potential to degrade aromatic compounds under high-salinity conditions
(American Society for Microbiology, 2014-11)
Arhodomonas sp. strain Seminole was isolated from a crude oil-impacted brine soil and shown to degrade benzene, toluene, phenol, 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (4-HBA), protocatechuic acid (PCA), and phenylacetic acid (PAA) as the ...
Metabolic theory explains latitudinal variation in common carp populations and predicts responses to climate change
(Ecological Society of America, 2015-04-14)
Climate change is expected to alter temperature regimes experienced by fishes, which may also alter life history traits. However, predicting population-level responses to climate change has been difficult. Metabolic theory ...
Identification of the inducing agent of the 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid pathway encoded by plasmid pJP4
(American Society for Microbiology, 1997-01)
The inducing agent of the 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) pathway of Alcaligenes eutrophus JMP134 (pJP4) was determined through the analysis of promoterless lacZ transcriptional fusions with tfd structural genes. ...
Cloning and expression of genes required for coronamic acid (2-ethyl-1-aminocyclopropane 1-carboxylic acid), an intermediate in the biosynthesis of the phytotoxin coronatine
(American Society for Microbiology, 1994-08)
Coronamic acid (CMA; 2-ethyl-1-aminocyclopropane 1-carboxylic acid) is an intermediate in the biosynthesis of coronatine (COR), a chlorosis-inducing phytotoxin produced by Pseudomonas syringae pv. glycinea PG4180. Tn5 ...
Influence of light on bacterioplankton production and respiration in a subtropical coral reef
(Inter Research, 1998-02-13)
The influence of sunlight on bacterioplankton production [14C-leucine (Leu) and 3H-thymidine (TdR) incorporation; changes in cell abundances] and O2 consumption was investigated in a shallow subtropical coral reef located ...
Phylogenetic and metabolic diversity of Planctomycetes from anaerobic, sulfide- and sulfur-rich Zodletone Spring, Oklahoma
(American Society for Microbiology, 2007-08)
We investigated the phylogenetic diversity and metabolic capabilities of members of the phylum Planctomycetes in the anaerobic, sulfide-saturated sediments of a mesophilic spring (Zodletone Spring) in southwestern Oklahoma. ...
