Recent Advances in the Preparation and Use of Perfluorodecalin Emulsions for Tissue Perfusion
At the present time there are no perfusion media, aside from those containing red blood cells, which carry sufficient oxygen to maintain organs having a high QO2. Resort is made to hypothermia, hyperbaria, and pe...

Pre- and Postoperative Echographic Investigation of Left Ventricular Function in Aortic Stenosis (AS)
The purpose of this study was to serially evaluate non-invasively the results of surgery upon left ventricular function in children with significant AS. Six groups of patients were evaluated: aortic stenosis −...

Chlorophyll-Binding Proteins: Strategies and Developments for DNA Cloning in Rhodopseudomonas Sphaeroides
The three bacterial representatives capable of anoxygenic photosynthesis are members of the family Rhodospirillaceae, Chromatiaceae and Chlorobiaceae (10). Although there are many physiological and anatomical dis...

Chapter
The Lactose Carrier of Escherichia Coli Functionally Incorporated in Rhodopseudomonas Sphaeroides Obeys the Regulatory Conditions of the Phototrophic Bacterium
Regulation of solute transport in Rps. sphaeroides is such that the presence of a proton motive force by itself is not enough for solute transport to take place. In addition linear or cyclic electron transfer is ...

Structural gene regions of Rhodobacter sphaeroides involved in CO2 fixation
From studies conducted in both our laboratory and by Gibson, Tabita and colleagues, as well as drawing on the recent studies with Alcaligenes eutrophus, we describe two genetic regions which have been identified ...

The puf operon region of Rhodobacter sphaeroides
The puf Operon of the purple nonsulfur photosynthetic bacterium, Rhodobacter sphaeroides, contains structural gene information for at least two functionally distinct bacteriochlorophyll-protein complexes (light h...

Chapter
Post-transcriptional Control of the Expression of Photosynthetic Complex Formation in Rhodobacter sphaeroides
Rhodobacter sphaeroides is a facultative photoheterotroph, able to grow on a variety of reduced organic carbon sources either in the presence or absence of O2, in either the light or dark. When g...

Sequence Skimming of Chromosome II of Rhodobacter sphaeroides 2.4.1 T
Rhodobacter sphaeroides is a photosynthetic member of the α-3 subgroup of Gram-negative bacteria (Woese, 1987). It is distinguished by a number of important characteristics which include at least...

Chapter
Mutation Analysis and Regulation of PpsR
In the presence of oxygen, Rhodobacter sphaeroides derives energy from aerobic respiration. When oxygen tension decreases below certain threshold levels, it develops in-tracytoplasmic membrane vesicles which hous...

Chapter
Photosynthesis genes and their expression in Rhodobacter sphaeroides 2.4.1: a tribute to my students and associates
This minireview traces the photosynthesis genes, their structure, function and expression in Rhodobacter sphaeroides 2.4.1, as applied to our understanding of the inducible photosynthetic intracytoplasmic membran...

Purple Bacterial Genomics
Genomes of several purple bacteria have recently been sequenced and many of these genomes have been fully annotated and are now available on either NCBI or/and other publicly accessible databases. This chapter...
