Temas: Absorption - Argon - Density functional theory - Phase interfaces - Density profiles - Fluid argon - Symmetry breaking - Carbon dioxide - argon - carbon dioxide
Descripción: A recently reported symmetry breaking of density profiles of fluid argon confined by two parallel solid walls of carbon dioxide is studied. The calculations are performed in the framework of a nonlocal density functional theory. It is shown that the existence of such asymmetrical solutions is restricted to a special choice for the adsorption potential, where the attraction of the solid-fluid interaction is reduced by the introduction of a hard-wall repulsion. The behavior as a function of the slit's width is also discussed. All the results are placed in the context of the current knowledge on this matter. © 2008 American Institute of Physics.

Temas: Carbon partitioning - Carbon precursors - Cofactors - D-lactate - Fed-batch cultures - Metabolic products - Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) - Recombinant Escherichia coli - Reducing power - Batch cell culture
Descripción: The effect of eliminating D-lactate synthesis in poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB)-accumulating recombinant Escherichia coli (K24K) was analyzed using glycerol as a substrate. K24KL, an ldhA derivative, produced more biomass and had altered carbon partitioning among the metabolic products, probably due to the increased availability of carbon precursors and reducing power. This resulted in a significant increase of PHB and ethanol synthesis and a decrease in acetate production. Cofactor measurements revealed that cultures of K24K and K24KL had a high intracellular NADPH content and that the NADPH/NADP+ ratio was higher than the NADH/NAD+ ratio. The ldhA mutation affected cofactor distribution, resulting in a more reduced intracellular state, mainly due to a further increase in NADPH/NADP+. In 60-h fed-batch cultures, K24KL reached 41.9 g · liter-1 biomass and accumulated PHB up to 63% ± 1% (wt/wt), with a PHB yield on glycerol of 0.41 ± 0.03 g · g-1, the highest reported using this substrate. © 2010, American Society for Microbiology.

Temas: Carbon stable isotope - Chlorophyll fluorescence - Hydraulic conductivity - Photosynthetic capacity - South Florida - Carbon isotope discrimination - Carbon stable isotopes - Chlorophyll fluorescence - Florida Everglades - Hydraulic constraints
Descripción: The relationship between water transport and photosynthesis represents the trade-off between carbon gain and water loss and was used to evaluate potential differences in water resource utilization among two dominant vegetation types of south Florida: subtropical evergreen broad leaf forests (hardwood hammocks) and pine woodlands (pine rocklands). We found consistent linear positive relationships between the quantum yield of photosystem II (φPSII), an index of photosynthetic capacity, and hydraulic conductivity per sapwood area (kS) and per leaf area (kL) across all species. The slope of the φPSII-kS relationship was steeper for hardwood hammock than for pine rockland species. Mean φPSII was greater in pine rockland species and was greater for a given kL than in hardwood hammock species. These results are consistent with previous observations demonstrating that pine rocklands tend to have better access to stable water sources than hardwood hammocks. We also found greater photosynthetic carbon isotope discrimination with increasing kS and kL in pine rockland species, but not in hardwood hammock species, suggesting increased stomatal conductance with increasing kS and kL, consistent with greater water availability in pine rockland habitats. Our study thus utilizes relationships between water transport and photosynthesis to evaluate hydraulic constraints on physiological function between two contrasting vegetation types with contrasting stability of water sources. © 2010 The Author(s).

Temas: Correlation lengths - Flux creep mechanism - Low temperatures - Persistent mode - Relaxation property - Single vortices - Superconducting properties - Upper critical fields - Creep - Superconducting magnets
Descripción: Addition of nonsuperconducting phases, such as carbon nanotubes, can modify the superconducting properties of MgB 2 samples, improving the critical current density and upper critical field. A full understanding of the flux creep mechanism involved is crucial to the development of superconducting magnets in persistent mode, one of the main thrusts for the development of MgB 2 wires. In this paper we present a creep study in bulk MgB 2 samples, pure and with different amounts of carbon nanotubes additions. We conclude that the most consistent picture at low temperatures is a single vortex pinning regime, where the correlation length is limited by the grain size. We introduce a novel analysis that allows us to identify the region where the Anderson-Kim model is valid. © 2013 AIP Publishing LLC.

Temas: 4 aminobutyric acid - acetic acid - aminolevulinic acid - carbon - glucose - nitrogen - permease - repressor protein - transcription factor - transcription factor GAT1
Descripción: The Saccharomyces cerevisiae UGA4 gene, which encodes the γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and δ-aminolaevulinic acid (ALA) permease, is well known to be regulated by the nitrogen source. Its expression levels are low in the presence of a rich nitrogen source but are higher when a poor nitrogen source is used. In addition, GABA can induce UGA4 expression when cells are grown with proline but not when they are grown with ammonium. Although vast amounts of evidence have been gathered about UGA4 regulation by nitrogen, little is known about its regulation by the carbon source. Using glucose and acetate as rich and poor carbon source respectively, this work aimed to shed light on hitherto unclear aspects of the regulation of this gene. In poor nitrogen conditions, cells grown with acetate were found to have higher UGA4 basal expression levels than those grown with glucose, and did not show UGA4 induction in response to GABA. Analysis of the expression and subcellular localization of the transcription factors that regulate UGA4 as well as partial deletions and site-directed mutations of the UGA4 promoter region suggested that there are two parallel pathways that act in regulating this gene by the carbon source. Furthermore, the results demonstrate the existence of a new factor operating in UGA4 regulation. © 2007 SGM.

Temas: autotrophic dinoflagellates - carbon-to-chlorophyll ratio - Prorocentrum minimum - south Patagonian waters - vertical distribution - autotrophy - biological uptake - biomass - carbon dioxide - chlorophyll
Descripción: Both the biomass of autotrophic dinoflagellates and its contribution to total chlorophyll were found to increase significantly with seawater temperature and the level of stratification in southern Patagonian waters during spring and winter. The highest peak of biomass corresponded to a single species, Prorocentrum minimum (Pavillard) Schiller, and was detected in middle shelf waters, coinciding with the primary productivity and CO 2 uptake maxima reported for the area under spring conditions. © The Author 2011.

Temas: abscisic acid - carbon - carrier protein - gibberellic acid - gibberellin - glucose - messenger RNA - phytohormone - vegetable protein - article
Descripción: Asr (for ABA, stress, ripening) genes are exclusively found in the genomes of higher plants, and the encoded proteins have been found localized both to the nucleus and cytoplasm. However, before the mechanisms underlying the activity of ASR proteins can be determined, the role of these proteins in planta should be deciphered. Results from this study suggest that ASR is positioned within the signaling cascade of interactions among glucose, abscisic acid, and gibberellins. Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) transgenic lines with reduced levels of ASR protein showed impaired glucose metabolism and altered abscisic acid and gibberellin levels. These changes were associated with dwarfism, reduced carbon dioxide assimilation, and accelerated leaf senescence as a consequence of a fine regulation exerted by ASR to the glucose metabolism. This regulation resulted in an impact on glucose signaling mediated by Hexokinase1 and Snf1-related kinase, which would subsequently have been responsible for photosynthesis, leaf senescence, and hormone level alterations. It thus can be postulated that ASR is not only involved in the control of hexose uptake in heterotrophic organs, as we have previously reported, but also in the control of carbon fixation by the leaves mediated by a similar mechanism. © 2013 American Society of Plant Biologists.

Descripción: In order to increase the understanding of the interactions which define the planar conformation of the methoxy group with respect to the aryl ring in methyl aryl ethers and the effect these interactions have on the methoxy NMR parameters, 17O and 13C spectra were measured and ab initio optimized geometries were calculated for three different conformations of the methoxy group in 2-methoxy-5-X-pyridines (X = H, NO2, and NH2). 17O and 13C chemical shifts were also calculated using the LORG approach. It was found that, contrary to what has been commonly assumed, the oxygen and the carbon of the methoxy group are deshielded when the electronic resonance interaction is increased. Therefore, the large 13C deshielding effect observed for a conformation with an out-of-plane methoxy group in aryl methyl ethers and related compounds has to be attributed to the inhibition of the attractive van der Waals forces between the methyl moiety and the aromatic ortho-cis carbon atom. © 1993 American Chemical Society.

Temas: Carbon dioxide - Host orientation - L-lactic acid - Short-chain fatty acids - Synergism - Triatoma infestans - butyric acid - carbon dioxide - carboxylic acid derivative - chemical compound
Descripción: The role of short-chain fatty acids in the host-seeking behaviour of Triatoma infestans larvae was investigated using a locomotion compensator. Several short-chain fatty acids were tested alone over a wide range of doses, or in combination with L-lactic acid (L-LA; 100 μg). Bugs showed no attractive response to single carboxylic acids, but when L-LA was added to airstreams carrying specific intensities of either propionic (C3; 100 μg), butyric (C4; 1 μg) or valeric acid (C5; 1 μg), these mixtures elicited an attractive response, evincing a synergistic effect. No orientation response was observed when caproic acid (C6) was offered with L-LA at the doses tested. Two blends were created: (1) C3, C4 and C5 combined at the effective doses when added with L-LA [C3C4C5 (1)], and (2) C3, C4 and C5 combined at a third of those intensities [C3C4C5 (2)]. Both blends were tested alone, with L-LA (100 μg), with a sub-threshold concentration of CO2 (300 p.p.m. above the ambient level), and combined with both compounds together. Oriented responses of bugs were only observed with the blend (2) added with L-LA and with the combination of this lure with CO2. This last combination evoked a behavioural response similar in intensity to that induced by a live mouse. © Oxford University Press 2004; all rights reserved.

Temas: Biomass - Fatty acids - Glycerol - Lipase - Yarrowia lipolytica mutant - biodiesel - carbon - fatty acid - glycerol - olive oil
Descripción: The yeast Yarrowia lipolytica accumulates oils and is able to produce extracellular lipases when growing in different carbon sources including glycerol, the principal by-product of the biodiesel industry. In this study, biomass production of a novel mutant strain of Y. lipolytica was statistically optimized by Response Surface Methodology in media containing biodiesel-derived glycerol as main carbon source. This strain exhibited distinctive morphological and fatty acid profile characteristics, and showed an increased extracellular lipase activity. An organic source of nitrogen and the addition of 1.0 g/l olive oil were necessary for significant lipase production. Plackett-Burman and Central Composite Statistical Designs were employed for screening and optimization of fermentation in shaken flasks cultures, and the maximum values obtained were 16.1 g/l for biomass and 12.2 Units/ml for lipase, respectively. Optimized batch bioprocess was thereafter scaled in aerated bioreactors and the values reached for lipase specific activity after 95 % of the glycerol had been consumed, were three-fold higher than those obtained in shaken flasks cultures. A sustainable bioprocess to obtain biomass and extracellular lipase activity was attained by maximizing the use of the by-products of biodiesel industry.

Descripción: Single-cell cytoplasm sap (1-10 pL) was extracted by using a pressure probe glass microcapillary tip from tulip leaf and bulb and analyzed by UV-MALDI-TOF MS for free underivatized carbohydrate content. Three matrices including 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHB), 2,4,6-trihydroxyacetophenone (THAP), and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in positive ion mode were selected for analysis because of acceptable carbohydrate-related signal reproducibility. Disaccharide and oligosaccharide (up to 15 Hex when THAP was used, 11 Hex with DHB, and 7 Hex with CNTs) were detected in tulip bulb cell cytoplasm sample. When DHB was used as matrix, neutral carbohydrates were more abundantly detected as sodiated cations; the sugar-related signals, however, appeared as dominant potassiated cations when THAP and CNTs were used. Small amount of monosaccharide was also detected in bulb cell cytoplasm with CNTs as matrix. UV-MALDI-TOF MS of leaf cell extract resulted in high-resolution detection of hexose and disaccharide with DHB, THAP, and CNTs. © 2008 American Society for Mass Spectrometry.

Temas: Continental shelf - Gross primary production - Net primary production - Oxygen saturation - pCO2 - Phytoplankton composition - Respiration - SW atlantic - air-sea interaction - biomass
Descripción: The influence of the plankton community structure on carbon dynamics was studied in the surface waters of the Argentinean continental shelf (SW Atlantic Ocean) in summer and fall 2002, 2003 and 2004, The horizontal changes in plankton community respiration (R), net community production (NCP) and gross primary production (GPP) were (1) compared with the difference in the partial pressure of CO2 (pCO2) between the sea surface and the atmosphere (ΔpCO2), (2) compared with oxygen saturation and (3) related to the microscopic phytoplankton assemblages, This area, which has recently been shown to be a CO2 sink, had an average surface oxygen saturation of 108.1%, indicating that net photosynthesis could have played a dominant role in the CO2 dynamics. At most stations, the production:respiration (GPP:R) ratio was greater than 1, indicating that planktonic communities were autotrophic; the average GPP:R ratio for the whole study was 2.99, Phytoplankton biomass (chlorophyll a) and NCP showed an inverse relationship with ΔpCO2 and a direct relationship with %O 2 saturation when phytoplankton assemblages were dominated by diatoms (30% of the stations), This was not the case when small (≤5 μm) flagellates were the most abundant organisms, Although NCP was mostly positive for both groups of stations (i.e. diatom-dominated or small flagellate- dominated), other physical and biological processes are thought to modify the CO2 dynamics when small flagellates are the prevailing phytoplankton group. © Inter-Research 2007.

Descripción: A recombinant E. coli strain (K24K) was constructed and evaluated For poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) production from whey and corn steep liquor as main carbon and nitrogen sources. This strain bears the pha biosynthetic genes from Azotobacter sp. strain FA8 expressed from a T5 promoter under the control of the lactose operator. K24K does not produce the lactose repressor, ensuring constitutive expression of genes involved in lactose transport and utilization. PHB was efficiently produced by the recombinant strain grown aerobically in fed-batch cultures in a laboratory scale bioreactor on a semisynthetic medium supplemented with the agroindustrial by-products. After 24 h, cells accumulated PHB to 72.9% of their cell dry weight, reaching a volumetric productivity of 2.13 g PHB per liter per hour. Physical analysis of PHB recovered from the recombinants showed that its molecular weight was similar to that of PHB produced by Azotobacter sp. strain FA8 and higher than that of the polymer from Cupriavidus necator and that its glass transition temperature was approximately 20°C higher than those of PHBs from the natural producer strains.
