In the present studies with whole cells and extracts of the photosynthetic bacterium Rhodopseudomonas capsulata the rapid inhibition of nitrogenase dependent activities (i.e. N2-fixation acetylene reduction, or photoproduction of H2) by ammonia was investigated. The results suggest, that the regulat
We have studied the changes in the activities of both nitrogenase ("switch off") and glutamine synthetase in Rhodospirillum rubrum upon addition of ammonium ions or glutamine to nitrogen fixing cultures. Both activities decrease drastically and return in a parallel manner when added ammonia is metab
## Abstract Growth and urea regulation of heterocyst and nitrogenase formation have been studied in the diazotrophic cyanobacterium __Anabaena cycadeae__ and its glutamine auxotrophic mutant strain lacking glutamine synthetase (GS) activity. The parent strain having normal GS activity utilized urea
