Abstract:
:Potassium citrate (10 mM, pH 6) inhibits the growth of cultured (Glycine max L.) cells when urea is the sole nitrogen source. Ureadependent citrate toxicity is overcome by three separate additions to the growth medium: (a) NH(4)Cl (20 mM); (b) high levels of MgCl(2) (10 mM) or CaCl(2) (5-10 mM); (c) low levels of NiSO(4) (10(-2) mM). Additions of 10(-2) mM NiSO(4) not only overcome citrate growth inhibition but the resultant growth is usually better than urea-supported growth in basal medium (neither added citrate nor added nickel). In the absence of added citrate, exceedingly low levels of NiSO(4) (10(-4) mM) strongly stimulate urea-supported growth in suspension cultures.Citrate does not inhibit growth when arginine is sole nitrogen source. However, cells using arginine have no net urease synthesis in the presence of 10 mM potassium citrate. When 10(-2) mM NiSO(4) is added to this medium, urease specific activity is 10 times that observed in basal medium lacking both citrate and added nickel.Citrate is a chelator of divalent cations. That additional Mg(2+) or Ca(2+) alleviates urea-dependent citrate toxicity indicates that citrate is acting by chelation, probably of another trace divalent cation; this is probably Ni(2+) since at 10(-2) mM it overcomes citrate toxicity and at 10(-4) mM it stimulates urea-supported growth in the absence of citrate. That ammonia overcomes citrate toxicity indicates that the trace Ni(2+) is essential specifically for the conversion of urea to ammonia. Ni(2+) stimulation of urease levels in arginine-grown cells supports this contention.In basal medium, soybean cells grow slowly with urea nitrogen source presumably because the trace amounts of Ni(2+) present (=10(-6) mM) are growth-limiting.
