Putting xanthine oxidoreductase and aldehyde oxidase on the NO metabolism map: Nitrite reduction by molybdoenzymes

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2018
Nitric oxide radical (NO) is a signaling molecule involved in several physiological and pathological processes and a new nitrate-nitrite-NO pathway has emerged as a physiological alternative to the ''classic'' pathway of NO formation from L-arginine ...

Effect of Ammonium and Nitrate on Ferric Chelate Reductase and Nitrate Reductase in Vaccinium Species [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Botany, 2004
Most Vaccinium species have strict soil requirements for optimal growth, requiring low pH, high iron availability and nitrogen primarily in the ammonium form. These soils are limited and are often located near wetlands. Vaccinium arboreum is a wild species adapted to a wide range of soils, including high pH, low iron, and nitrate-containing soils. This

Nitrogen metabolism in a grapevine in vitro system

open access: yesOENO One, 2002
Ammonium, nitrate, nitrite, protein and individual and total amino acid contents were determined in grapevine (cv Sauvignon) cultured in vitro. The enzyme activities of nitrate and nitrite reductases, glutamine synthetase, glutamate synthetase and ...

Large‐scale bidirectional arrayed genetic screens identify OXR1 and EMC4 as modifiers of αSynuclein aggregation

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Activation of the mitochondrial protein OXR1 increases pSyn129 αSynuclein aggregation by lowering ATP levels and altering mitochondrial membrane potential, particularly in response to MSA‐derived fibrils. In contrast, ablation of the ER protein EMC4 enhances autophagic flux and lysosomal clearance, broadly reducing α‐synuclein aggregates.

Role of oral and gut microbiomes in enterosalivary nitrate metabolism and their effects on systemic disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
Nitrate, which maintains hemostasis in systemic circulation, is obtained from nitrate-rich vegetables, concentrated, reabsorbed by the salivary glands, and reduced to nitrite and nitric oxide (NO•).

Functional Redundancy in Perchlorate and Nitrate Electron Transport Chains and Rewiring Respiratory Pathways to Alter Terminal Electron Acceptor Preference

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Most dissimilatory perchlorate reducing bacteria (DPRB) are also capable of respiratory nitrate reduction, and preferentially utilize nitrate over perchlorate as a terminal electron acceptor.

Denitrification activity of a remarkably diverse fen denitrifier community in finnish lapland is N-oxide limited. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Peatlands cover more than 30% of the Finnish land area and impact N2O fluxes. Denitrifiers release N2O as an intermediate or end product. In situ N2O emissions of a near pH neutral pristine fen soil in Finnish Lapland were marginal during gas chamber ...

Nitrate Utilization by Nitrate Reductase-deficient Barley Mutants [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 1981
Two nitrate reductase-deficient barley mutants were studied for growth on nitrate and ammonium sources of nitrogen and for resistance to chlorate. Although nitrate reductase-deficient mutants in some species are chlorate-resistant (unable to reduce chlorate to chlorite), the barley mutants used in these studies when grown on nitrate and treated with ...

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

open access: yesFEBS 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 ...

Haloferax mediterranei, an Archaeal Model for Denitrification in Saline Systems, Characterized Through Integrated Physiological and Transcriptional Analyses

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Haloferax mediterranei (R4) belongs to the group of halophilic archaea, one of the predominant microbial populations in hypersaline environments. In these ecosystems, the low availability of oxygen pushes the microbial inhabitants toward anaerobic ...
