Evolution of cytochromes and photosynthesis.

ACTA-BIOENERG 1058(1):31-4 (1991) PMID 1646014

The following is an outline of the direction of research into the evolutionary origins of photosynthesis as revealed by the study of cytochromes c. Determination of the numbers of kinds of cytochromes, their structures, their functional roles, and their distribution are the principal kinds of data being collected and analyzed. A hypothesis on the origin of photosynthesis is presented.

  1. Structure of mistletoe lectin I from Viscum album in complex with the phytohormone zeatin.

    ACTA-BIOENERG 1784(11):1590-5 (2008) PMID 18718563

    I (ML-I) isolated from the European mistletoe Viscum album in complex with the most active phytohormone zeatin has been analyzed and refined to 2.54 A resolution. X-ray suitable crystals of ML-I were obtained by the counter-diffusion method using the Gel-Tube R crystallization kit (GT-R) onboard the...
  2. Enzymatic characterization of a serralysin-like metalloprotease from the entomopathogen bacterium, Xenorhabdus

    PROTEINS & PROTEOMICS 1814(10):7 (2011) PMID 21635975

    We investigated the enzymatic properties of a serralysin-type metalloenzyme, provisionally named as protease B, which is secreted by Xenorhabdus bacterium, and probably is the ortholog of PrA peptidase of Photorhabdus bacterium. Testing the activity on twenty-two oligopeptide substrates we found tha...
