Sudden anaerobization in Amphibacillus xylanus increases intracellular labile ferrous iron and inhibits cell growth

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Abruptly changing from aerobic to anaerobic conditions (sudden anaerobization) induced growth inhibition and a significant increase in intracellular labile ferrous iron in the aerotolerant anaerobe Amphibacillus xylanus. We found that free flavins mediate efficient electron transfer from NADH to ferric iron under anaerobic conditions, suggesting that ...

The dependence of nitrate reductase activity on the level of soluble sugars in wheat and cucumber roots growing in the presence of simazine, in light or in darkness

Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
At concentrations of 25 and 5 µM, simazine inhibited nitrate reductase activity in wheat and cucumber roots, respectively. It also lowered the content of soluble sugars and decreased the activities of NADH malate dehydrogenase and NADP+ glucose-6 ...

Nitrate reduction salvage pathway in Methanococcales

Frontiers in Microbiology
Nitrate is the most oxidized form of nitrogen and an essential nutrient for many living organisms. Its utilization was considered impossible in methanogenic archaea, since nitrate reduction inherently generates nitrite, a potent oxidant that can disrupt ...

Arabidopsis Growth-Promotion and Root Architecture Responses to the Beneficial Rhizobacterium Phyllobacterium brassicacearum Strain STM196 Are Independent of the Nitrate Assimilatory Pathway

Plants, 2022
Phyllobacterium brassicacearum STM196, a plant growth-promoting rhizobacterium isolated from roots of oilseed rape, stimulates Arabidopsis growth. We have previously shown that the NRT2.5 and NRT2.6 genes are required for this growth promotion response ...

Mitochondria and Neuromast Tagging With Fluorescent Gallium‐Triapine Analogues: In Cellulo MP FLIM and Zebrafish Live Imaging

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Fluorescent BODIPY‐conjugated thiosemicarbazone ligands and their Ga(III), In(III), and Fe(III) complexes, inspired by Triapine, are developed as theranostic agents. Multiphoton FLIM and confocal microscopy in cancer cells and zebrafish reveal real‐time uptake, mitochondrial localisation, and whilst spectroscopic assays indicated preserved complex ...

Underground Signals: The Ecological Power of Root Volatiles

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Root volatiles mediate rhizosphere chemical communication, shaping interactions among plants, microbes, herbivores, and natural enemies. Their production, transport, and perception underpin ecological adaptation, multitrophic interactions, and plant resilience, offering opportunities for sustainable crop protection, resilient agroecosystems, and ...
