    Notes: Abstract Cytochrome cd 1-nitrite reductase and nitrous oxide reductase of Thiobacillus denitrificans were purified and characterized by biochemical and immunochemical methods. In contrast to the generally soluble nature of the denitrification enzymes, these two enzymes were isolated from the membrane fraction of T. denitrificans and remained active after solubilization with Triton X-100. The properties of the membrane-derived enzymes were similar to those of their soluble counterparts from the same organism. Nitrous oxide reductase activity was inhibited by acetylene. Nitrite reductase and nitrous oxide reductase cross-reacted with antisera raised against the soluble enzymes from Pseudomonas stutzeri. The nirS, norBC, and nosZ genes encoding the cytochrome cd 1-nitrite reductase, nitric oxide reductase, and nitrous oxide reductase, respectively, from P. stutzeri hybridized with genomic DNA from T. denitrificans. Cross-reactivity and similar N-terminal amino acid and gene sequences suggest that the primary structures of the Thiobacillus enzymes are homologous to the soluble proteins from P. stutzeri.

    Notes: Abstract Copper is the essential transition element for nitrous oxide respiration in Pseudomonas perfectomarinus. Two novel kinds of copper proteins were detected in this organism. Their distribution was studied under different growth conditions and in other pseudomonads, as well as their association with N2O reduction of intact cells. A low molecular mass copper protein (M r 38,000) with a single absorption band at 340 nm (oxidized form), was found only in P. perfectomarinus and was not required for N2O reduction. N2O respiration was consistently associated with a high molecular mass copper protein (M r 120,000) in P. perfectomarinus, Pseudomonas stutzeri, and in strains of Pseudomonas fluorescens that were capable of this type of respiration. The oxidized protein was violet to pink with absorption bands at 350, 480, 530, 620, and 780 nm. Pseudomonas chlororaphis and Pseudomonas aureofaciens which did not respire with N2O as electron acceptor, did not contain the novel type of copper protein. Cytochrome patterns were compared in these denitrifying pseudomonads to search for the physiological electron carrier to N2O reductase. The content and nature of the soluble c-type cytochromes depended strongly on the species and the particular growth condition.

    Copper-containing nitrite reductase from Pseudomonas aureofaciens is functional in a mutationally cytochrome cd 1-free background (NirS−) of Pseudomonas stutzeri (1993)

    Notes: Abstract The structural gene, nirK, for the respiratory Cu-containing nitrite reductase from denitrifying Pseudomonas aureofaciens was isolated and sequenced. It encodes a polypeptide of 363 amino acids including a signal peptide of 24 amino acids for protein export. The sequence showed 63.8% positional identity with the amino acid sequence of “Achromobacter cycloclastes” nitrite reductase. Ligands for the blue, type I Cu-binding site and for a putative type-II site were identified. The nirK gene was transferred to the mutant MK202 of P. stutzeri which lacks cytochrome cd 1 nitrite reductase due to a transposon Tn5 insertion in its structural gene, nirS. The heterologous enzyme was active in vitro and in vivo in this background and restored the mutationally interrupted denitrification pathway. Transfer of nirK to Escherichia coli resulted in an active nitrite reductase in vitro. Expression of the nirS gene from P. stutzeri in P. aureofaciens and E. coli led to nonfunctional gene products. Nitrite reductase activity of cell extract from either bacterium could be reconstituted by addition of heme d 1, indicating that both heterologous hosts synthesized a cytochrome cd 1 without the d 1-group.

    Enzyme diversity and mosaic gene organization in denitrification (1997)

    Notes: Abstract Denitrification is a main branch of the global nitrogen cycle. In the past ten years unravelling the underlying biochemistry and genetics has proceeded at an increasing pace. Fungal denitrification has become a new field. The biochemical investigation of denitrification has culminated in the description of the crystal structures of the two types of nitrite reductases. The N2O reductase shares with cytochrome c oxidase the CuA center as a structurally novel metal site. The cytochrome b subunit of NO reductase has a striking conservation of heme-binding transmembrane segments versus the subunit I of cytochrome c oxidase. Another putative denitrification gene product shows structural relation to the subunit III of the oxidase. N2O reductase and NO reductase may be ancestors of energy-conserving enzymes of the heme-copper oxidase superfamily. More than 30 genes for denitrification are located in a 〉30-kb cluster in Pseudomonas stutzeri, and comparable gene clusters have been identifi ed in Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Paracoccus denitrificans. Genes necessary for nitrite reduction and NO reduction have a mosaic arrangement with very few conserved locations within these clusters and relative to each other.

    Slip velocity of particulate solids in vertical tubes (1966)

    Notes: An equation using only easily determined physical properties of particles has been developed for calculating the slip velocity of nonspherical particulate solids falling in fluid media in the intermediate flow range where neither the Stokes nor Newton law applies. The variation in Reynolds numbers covered by this work ranged from 12 to 460. Slip velocities calculated from the equation differed from experimental data by an average deviation of only 3.7% when solids of a wide range of diameters (156 to 1,247 microns), densities (71 to 475 lb./cu. ft.), surface shape factors (0.40 to 0.97), and gases of a wide density range (0.01 to 0.31 lb./cu. ft.) were utilized. Thirty-eight different gas-solid systems were studied.

    Prediction of the properties of model polymer solutions and blends (1994)

    Notes: In this work we present an extension of the statistical associating fluid theory (SAFT) developed for associating fluids by applying this extension to polymer solutions and blends. The polymer molecule is modeled as a flexible chain made of bonded spherical segments. These segments interact with the Lennard-Jones potential. The extension of SAFT is compared with molecular simulation results for polymer solutions and blends. Since the same force model is used in the simulation and theory, this comparison is a strong test of the assumptions made in deriving the theory. Results are presented for pure polymers of up to 50 segments long, polymer solutions of a polymer 20 segments long dissolved in its own monomer, and blends of polymers of 25 segments each. The theory produces results that are in better agreement with simulation results than the Flory-Huggins theory for the systems studied.
