Genetic regulation of nitrogen fixation in rhizobia [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiological Reviews, 1994
This review presents a comparison between the complex genetic regulatory networks that control nitrogen fixation in three representative rhizobial species, Rhizobium meliloti, Bradyrhizobium japonicum, and Azorhizobium caulinodans. Transcription of nitrogen fixation genes (nif and fix genes) in these bacteria is induced primarily by low-oxygen ...

Structures of mycobacterial 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA carboxylase reveal carrier‐domain translocation between catalytic sites

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mycobacterial 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA carboxylase uses a mobile biotin‐carrying domain to shuttle a carboxyl group between two catalytic sites, enabling carboxylation of 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA during leucine breakdown. Cryo‐electron microscopy captures the carrier at both sites and reveals an inward loop movement that may prevent futile rebinding to the ...

The Shewanella oneidensis Fic enzyme SoFic targets the switch‐I region of EF‐Tu for AMPylation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fic enzymes mediate diverse post‐translational modifications across all domains of life, including AMPylation. Prokaryotic EF‐Tu can be AMPylated and deAMPylated by the conserved Fic enzyme SoFic. Structural and biochemical approaches were used to characterize the effect of AMPylation on EF‐Tu, SoFic's enzymatic activities, and the enzyme‐target ...

L‐aspartate oxidase provides new insights into fumarate reduction in anaerobic darkness in Synechocystis sp. PCC6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Synechocystis strains deficient in succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) secrete more succinate than the WT under dark anaerobic conditions, supporting that SDH then primarily acts as SDH, not as a fumarate reductase. L‐aspartate oxidase (Laspo) from Synechocystis is functional under anaerobic conditions, reducing fumarate to succinate.

Leucine‐rich glioma inactivated 1 (LGI1) is a ganglioside‐binding protein

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neuronal hyperexcitability associated with a decrease/absence of the extracellular protein LGI1 has been suggested to be primarily due to the downregulation of Kv1 channel expression. The molecular mechanisms underlying this decrease have not yet been elucidated.

Source–sink characterization, classification and responses to nitrogen in different wheat cultivars

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
Optimizing source-sink dynamics is fundamental to understanding crop yield formation and achieving high productivity. This study aims to elucidate the physiological mechanisms by which source-sink traits influence wheat yield and to classify cultivars ...

Comprehensive Transcriptomic Analysis of Heterotrophic Nitrifying Bacterium Klebsiella sp. TN-10 in Response to Nitrogen Stress

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
Klebsiella sp. TN-10, a heterotrophic nitrifying bacterium, showed excellent nitrification ability under nitrogen stress. The strain was cultured under different nitrogen stress levels, including ammonium sulfate 0.5, 2.5, and 5 g/L, and samples were ...

Metastatic niche shaped by host factors influences disseminated cancer cell fate

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Metastasis is shaped not only by cancer cells but also by the environments they encounter. This review explores how factors such as aging, diet, the microbiome, lifestyle, and environmental exposures remodel organ‐specific niches in the lung, liver, bone, and brain, influencing where metastatic cells survive, remain dormant, or grow, and ultimately ...

Combined application of straw and biochar: reducing nitrogen fertilizer demand and enhancing soybean yield

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) is an important food crop in Northeast China. However, intensive cultivation relying on long-term high nitrogen fertilizer input has led to the loss of soil organic carbon and the decline of cultivated land quality in the
