Chapter
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...
Chapter
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...

Article
Rhodobacter sphaeroides 2.4.1 is an α-3 purple nonsulfur eubacterium with an extensive metabolic repertoire. Under anaerobic conditions, it is able to grow by photosynthesis, respiration ...
Chapter
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
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
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...
Article
In order to evaluate potential electrocardiographic (ECG) correlates of ST-segment depression during exercise in patients with sickle cell anemia (SS), 43 subjects, aged 5–23 years, underwent submaximal exeric...
Chapter
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 ...

Article
The presence of pulmonary vascular disease (PVD) in patients undergoing cardiac transplantation may result in death from acute right ventricular failure. This study was undertaken to explore the frequency and ...
Article
Plasma norepinephrine (PNE) is elevated in patients with conogestive heart failure (CHF) and the degree of elevation corresponds to the severity of the CHF. This study was performed to determine whether PNE re...
Article
The QTc interval which reflects ventricular activation/repolarization has not been characterized in children during exercise. We studied 60 children (ages 5-18 years) who underwent upright cycle ergometry accordi...
