The nirQ gene, which is required for denitrification of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, can activate the RubisCO from Pseudomonas hydrogenothermophila

TL;DR: Two putative ATP-binding proteins encoded in the gene cluster for the Calvin cycle of Pseudomonas hydrogenothermophila (cbbQ) and for the denitrification of PseUDomonas aeruginosa (nirQ) have been found to be similar.

Different properties of gene products of three sets ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase from a marine obligately autotrophic hydrogen-oxidizing bacterium, Hydrogenovibrio marinus strain MH-110

TL;DR: Investigation of three sets of genes for ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase in Hydrogenovibrio marinus strain MH-110 revealed that the specific activity of CbbM was very low and CBBM was inactivated easily during the process of purification, and the antibody to neither form of RubisCO demonstrated cross-reactivity for the other form.

Purification of form L2 RubisCO from a marine obligately autotrophic hydrogen-oxidizing bacterium, Hydrogenovibrio marinus strain MH-110.

TL;DR: The N-terminal amino acid sequence determination of the purified enzyme showed high homology with those of the L2-form RubisCO of Rhodospirillum rubrum and the Lx-formRubisCO from Rhodobacter sphaeroides.

Nitrosomonas communis strain YNSRA, an ammonia-oxidizing bacterium, isolated from the reed rhizoplane in an aquaponics plant

TL;DR: An ammonia-oxidizing bacterium was isolated from the rhizoplane of the reed used in an aquaponics plant which is a wastewater treatment plant and had a higher activity than that of Nitrosomonas europaea ATCC25978T.

Ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase from the thermophilic, acidophilic alga, Cyanidium caldarium (Geitler): Purification, characterisation and thermostability of the enzyme

TL;DR: It is suggested that the thermostability of Cyanidium ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase is a result of an inherent stability of the enzyme molecule which permits efficient CO2 fixation at high temperatures but results in low activity in the mesophilic temperature range.

Thermal properties and oxygenase activity of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase from the thermophilic purple bacterium, Chromatium tepidum

TL;DR: It is concluded that thermophilic purple bacteria produce heat-stable RuBPCase and that allRuBPCases, even those from an obligate anaerobe such as C. tepidum, have associated oxygenase activity.

Purification and characterization of the thermostable ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase from the thermophilic purple bacterium Chromatium tepidum.

TL;DR: Amino acid composition and immunological analyses of C. tepidum and Chromatium vinosum ribulose-bisphosphate carboxylases showed the enzymes to be highly related despite significant differences in heat stability.
