Electron transfer ferredoxins with unusual cluster binding motifs support secondary metabolism in many bacteria [PDF]
, 2018 The proteins responsible for controlling electron transfer in bacterial secondary metabolism are not always known or characterised. Here we demonstrate that many bacteria contain a set of unfamiliar ferredoxin encoding genes which are associated with ...

Functional Stability and Community Dynamics during Spring and Autumn Seasons Over 3 Years in Camargue Microbial Mats [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017 Microbial mats are complex biofilms in which the major element cycles are represented at a millimeter scale. In this study, community variability within microbial mats from the Camargue wetlands (Rhone Delta, southern France) were analyzed over 3 years ...

Ferredoxin and ferredoxin–heme maquettes [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1996 A 16-amino acid residue peptide derived from a consensus motif of natural ferredoxins incorporates a tetranuclear iron sulfur cluster under physiological conditions. Successful assembly of the [4Fe–4S] 2+/1+ cluster within a monomeric peptide was demonstrated using size exclusion chromatography, UV-visible ...

Plant type ferredoxins and ferredoxin‐dependent metabolism [PDF]
Plant, Cell & Environment, 2013 Ferredoxin (Fd) are small [Fe‐S] cluster containing proteins, which act as the first soluble acceptors of electrons on the stromal side of the chloroplast electron transport chain. In addition to their primary function in photosynthesis, Fds are also involved in a number of other essential metabolic reactions, including biosynthesis of chlorophyll ...

Bioinformatic approach for the identification of plant species that accumulate palmitoleic acid
Electronic Journal of Biotechnology, 2022 Background: Palmitoleic acid is a fatty acid that possesses nutritional, health, and industrial applications. However, it accumulates in the seed oil of few plant species that often lack agronomic value.

The Schistosoma mansoni Cytochrome P450 (CYP3050A1) Is Essential for Worm Survival and Egg Development. [PDF]
, 2015 Schistosomiasis affects millions of people in developing countries and is responsible for more than 200,000 deaths annually. Because of toxicity and limited spectrum of activity of alternatives, there is effectively only one drug, praziquantel, available

The interaction of ferredoxin‐linked sulfite reductase with ferredoxin [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1987 Spinach sulfite reductase has been shown to co‐migrate during gel filtration chromatography at low ionic strength with spinach ferredoxin. No co‐migration was observed at high ionic strength. These results indicate that the two proteins form a high‐affinity, electrostatically stabilized complex, as had previously been demonstrated for three other ...

Spectroelectrochemical Elucidation of the Kinetics of Two Closely Spaced Electron Transfers [PDF]
, 2012 The use of spectroelectrochemistry to facilitate the analysis of an EE mechanism was reported in this work. Using a set of spectra as a function of potential, the spectra of all three oxidation states were determined using evolving window factor analysis.
