Regulated nitrate transport in the cyanobacterium Anacystis nidulans.

Abstract:

:Intracellular accumulation of nitrate, indicative of the operation of an active nitrate transport system, has been measured in intact cells of the cyanobacterium Anacystis nidulans. The ability of the cells to accumulate nitrate was effectively hindered by either ammonium addition or selective inhibition of CO2 fixation by DL-glyceraldehyde, with the effect of either compound being prevented by previously blocking ammonium assimilation. The results support the contention that nitrate utilization in cyanobacteria is regulated at the level of nitrate transport through the concerted action of ammonium assimilation and CO2 fixation.

  • Regulation of the bacterial cell wall: analysis of a mutant of Bacillus subtilis defective in biosynthesis of teichoic acid.

    abstract::Bacillus subtilis 168ts-200B is a temperature-sensitive mutant of B. subtilis 168 which grows as rods at 30 C but as irregular spheres at 45 C. Growth at the nonpermissive temperature resulted in a deficiency of teichoic acid in the cell wall. A decrease in teichoic acid synthesis coupled with the rapid turnover of th...
