Journal ArticleDOI
A galectin links the aggregation factor to cells in the sponge (Geodia cydonium) system
Claudia Wagner-Hülsmann,Nilza Bachinski,Bärbel Diehl-Seifert,Barbara Blumbach,Renate Steffen,Zeev Pancer,Werner E.G. Müller +6 more
TL;DR: Investigation of the cDNA for the full-length lectin from the marine sponge Geodia cydonium revealed that this lectin belongs to the group of galectins, and it is concluded that the G.cydonium aggregation factor binds to the cells via a galectin bridge.
Journal ArticleDOI
Purification and characterization of two exopolyphosphatases from the marine sponge Tethya lyncurium
Bernd Lorenz,Renato Batel,Nilza Bachinski,Nilza Bachinski,Werner E.G. Müller,Heinz C. Schröder +5 more
TL;DR: Polyphosphate is shown to inhibit the formation of ATP by adenylate kinase activity present in T. lyncurium extracts in a competitive manner, suggesting a potential role of polyph phosphate metabolism in regulating intracellular concentrations of adenYLate nucleotides.
Journal ArticleDOI
Immediate early response of the marine sponge Suberites domuncula to heat stress: reduction of trehalose and glutathione concentrations and glutathione S-transferase activity
Nilza Bachinski,Nilza Bachinski,Claudia Koziol,Renato Batel,Zeljka Labura,Heinz C. Schröder,Werner E.G. Müller +6 more
TL;DR: Data show that in S. domuncula the concentrations of trehalose, GSH, and the activity of GST, are biomarkers for immediate early response towards heat stress.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inorganic polyphosphates in the developing freshwater sponge Ephydatia muelleri: Effect of stress by polluted waters
Georg Imsiecke,Jessica Münkner,Bernd Lorenz,Werner E.G. Müller,Heinz C. Schröder,Nilza Bachinski,Nilza Bachinski +6 more
TL;DR: The results show that measurement of polyphosphate level may be a promising method to detect responses of the freshwater sponge to polluted waters.
Journal Article
Periplasmic trehalase from Escherichia coli : characterization and immobilization on spherisorb
C. F. Tourinho-Dos-Santos,Nilza Bachinski,V. M. F. Paschoalin,Carmen Lucia Antão Paiva,Joab Trajano Silva,Anita D. Panek +5 more
TL;DR: The preparation was free of nonspecific carbohydrate hydrolases, which act on sucrose, galactose and maltose, permitting trehalose determination in biological samples, such as insect hemolymph and free cell extracts among others, and could be used routinely for specific determinations oftrehalose.
