The decarboxylation of pyruvate is a central reaction in the carbon metabolism of all organisms. It is catalyzed by the pyruvate:ferredoxin oxidoreductase (PFOR) and the pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) ...

During photosynthesis, electron transport is necessary for carbon assimilation and must be regulated to minimize free radical damage. There is a longstanding controversy over the role of a critical ...

Rutgers researchers have discovered the origins of the protein structures responsible for metabolism: simple molecules that powered early life on Earth and serve as chemical signals that NASA could ...

ABSTRACT: Harmful Algal Blooms (HAB) were investigated to prevent the outbreak of HAB in both freshwater and seawater. Parameters inducing HAB were volcanic eruption, sunlight, aeolian dust, ...

We describe a flavin-containing thioredoxin reductase (FFTR) from the anaerobic soil bacterium Clostridium pasteurianum. The enzyme differed from the well-known flavin thioredoxin reductase in its ...

Iron is a limiting nutrient in bacterial infection putting it at the centre of an evolutionary arms race between host and pathogen. Gram-negative bacteria utilize TonB-dependent outer membrane ...

Forty years ago, ferredoxin (Fdx) was shown to activate fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase in illuminated chloroplast preparations, thereby laying the foundation for the field now known as "redox biology." ...
