In long-term experiments, nitrogen fixation in photosynthetic organisms is usually dependent upon the presence of light (FoGG and THAN TUN, 1960; F\_au and FOGG, 1962) although certain photosynthetic nitrogen-fixers can grow and fix nitrogen in the dark using organic media (Nostoc muscorum, ALLISON,
Anabaena cylindrica grown in steady state continuous culture has an extractable ATP pool, measured on the basis of the luciferin-luciferase assay of 165 +/- 35 nmoles ATP mg chla-1. This pool is maintained by a dynamic balance between the rate of ATP synthesis and the rate of ATP utilization. Phosph
The L-alanine dehydrogenase (ADH) of Anabaena cylindrica has been purified 700-fold. It has a molecular weight of approximately 270,000, has 6 sub-units, each of molecular weight approximately 43,000, and shows activity both in the aminating and deaminating directions. The enzyme is NADH/NAD+ specif
