Making your (Dsb) connection: the redox pathway bringing reducing equivalents from bacterial cytoplasm, across the inner membrane, to the three reductive Dsb pathways in the otherwise oxidizing periplasm (see scheme; TR=thioredoxin reductase, Trx=thioredoxin) is reconstituted from purified components. Transfer of reducing equivalents across the membrane is demonstrated and underlying mechanistic details are revealed.

During deepwater drilling, the low mudline temperatures and narrow safe density window pose serious challenges to the safe and efficient performance of deepwater water-based drilling fluids. Low temperatures can lead to physical and chemical changes in the components of water-based drilling fluids and the behavior of low temperature gelation. As a coarse dispersion system, water-based drilling fluid has a complex composition of dispersed phase and dispersing medium.

Heterologous expression of nitrogenase has been actively pursued because of the far-reaching impact of this enzyme on agriculture, energy and environment. Yet, isolation of an active two-component, metallocentre-containing nitrogenase from a non-diazotrophic host has yet to be accomplished. Here, we report the heterologous synthesis of an active Mo-nitrogenase by combining genes from and in .

The present study was aimed to produce the recombinant protein of allergen component 32 (Tyr p 32) and to identify its immunoreactivity. The cDNA encoding Tyr p 32 was amplified from total RNA of and inserted into pET-28a (+) vector. The constructed plasmid pET-28a (+)-Tyr p 32 was transformed into BL21 (DE3) receptor cells.
