Nitrate assimilation is a key process for nitrogen (N) acquisition in green microalgae. Among
Chlorophyte algae, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii has resulted to be a good model system to …

Ammonium and nitrate are primary nitrogen sources for many organisms. Though the
energy cost required for ammonium assimilation is lower than that of nitrate (2) and many …

Dr. Harris has played a major role in the development of this organism as a model system.
Her previous version of the Chlamydomonas Sourcebook which published in 1989, has …

The viability of plants relies on molybdenum, which after binding to the organic moiety of
molybdopterin forms the molybdenum cofactor (Moco) and acquires remarkable redox …

Molybdenum (Mo) is vital for the activity of a small but essential group of enzymes called
molybdoenzymes. So far, specifically five molybdoenzymes have been discovered in …

Within the cell, the trace element molybdenum (Mo) is only biologically active when
complexed either within the nitrogenase‐specific FeMo cofactor or within the molybdenum …

All eukaryotic molybdenum (Mo) enzymes contain in their active site a Mo Cofactor (Moco),
which is formed by a tricyclic pyranopterin with a dithiolene chelating the Mo atom. Here, the …

The molybdenum cofactor (Moco) is a redox-active prosthetic group found in the active site
of Moco-dependent enzymes, which are vitally important for life. Moco biosynthesis involves …

The ARC (amidoxime reducing component) proteins are molybdenum cofactor (Moco)
enzymes named hmARC1 and hmARC2 (human ARCs [hmARCs]) in humans and YcbX in …

Molybdenum (Mo) and tungsten (W) enzymes catalyze important redox reactions in the
global carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur cycles. Except in nitrogenases both metals are …
