Metabolic Performance and Fate of Electrons during Nitrate-Reducing Fe(II) Oxidation by the Autotrophic Enrichment Culture KS Grown at Different Initial Fe/N Ratios

Natalia Jakus

Autotrophic nitrate-reducing Fe(II)-oxidizing (NRFeOx) microorganisms fix CO2 and oxidize Fe(II) coupled to denitrification, influencing carbon, iron, and nitrogen cycles in pH-neutral, anoxic environments. However, the distribution of electrons from Fe(II ...

Diel quenching of Southern Ocean phytoplankton fluorescence is related to iron limitation

Nina Schuback

Evaluation of photosynthetic competency in time and space is critical for better estimates and models of oceanic primary productivity. This is especially true for areas where the lack of iron (Fe) limits phytoplankton productivity, such as the Southern Oce ...

A method to disentangle and quantify host anabolic turnover in photosymbiotic holobionts with subcellular resolution

Anders Meibom, Arnaud Comment, Maoz Fine, Emma Mary Gibbin, Guilhem Maurice Louis Banc-Prandi

A wide range of organisms host photosynthesizing symbionts. In these animals the metabolic exchange between host and symbionts has prevented in situ host anabolic turnover to be studied without the confounding effect of translocated photosynthates. Using t ...

Reactivity of Bioinspired Magnesium-Organic Networks under CO2 and O-2 Exposure

Klaus Kern, Magalí Alejandra Lingenfelder, Fernando Pablo Cometto, Bart Willem Stel, Daniel Eduardo Hurtado Salinas

Photosynthesis is the model system for energy conversion. It uses CO2 as a starting reactant to convert solar energy into chemical energy, i.e., organic molecules or biomass. The first and rate-determining step of this cycle is the immobilization and activ ...
