Lecture 29 Spring 2007
Geol. 656 Isotope Geochemistry Lecture 29 Spring 2007 ISOTOPE FRACTIONATION IN THE BIOSPHERE INTRODUCTION As we noted, biological processes often involve large isotopic fractionations. Indeed, biological proc- esses are the most important cause of variations in the isotope composition of carbon, nitrogen, and sul- fur. For the most part, the largest fractionations occur during the initial production of organic matter by the so-called primary producers, or autotrophs. These include all plants and many kinds of bacteria. The most important means of production of organic matter is photosynthesis, but organic matter may also be produced by chemosynthesis, for example at mid-ocean ridge hydrothermal vents. Large frac- tions of both carbon and nitrogen occur during primary production. Additional fractionations also oc- cur in subsequent reactions and up through the food chain as hetrotrophs consume primary producers, but these are generally smaller. CARBON ISOTOPE FRACTIONATION DURING PHOTOSYNTHESIS The most important of process producing isotopic fractionation of carbon is photosynthesis. As we earlier noted, photosynthetic fractionation of carbon isotopes is primarily kinetic. The early work of Park and Epstein (1960) suggested fractionation occurred in several steps. Subsequent work has eluci- dated the fractionations involved in these steps, which we will consider in more detail here. For terrestrial plants (those utilizing atmospheric CO2), the first step is diffusion of CO2 into the boundary layer surrounding the leaf, through the stomata, and internally in the leaf. The average δ13C of various species of plants has been correlated with the stomatal conductance (Delucia et al., 1988), in- dicating that diffusion into the plant is indeed important in fractionating carbon isotopes.

Photorespiration
Arjun Adhikari, Asst. Prof. M.C. College, Barpeta Photorespiration Photorespiration is a wasteful pathway that competes with the Calvin cycle. It begins when rubisco acts on oxygen instead of carbon dioxide. RuBP oxygenase-carboxylase (rubisco ), a key enzyme in photosynthesis. In the process of carbon fixation , rubisco incorporates carbon dioxide into an organic molecule during the first stage of the Calvin cycle . Rubisco is so important to plants that it makes upto 30% percent or more of the soluble protein in a typical plant leaf. But rubisco also has a major flaw: instead of always using CO 2 as a substrate, it sometimes picks up O2 instead. This side reaction initiates a pathway called photorespiration , which, rather than fixing carbon, actually leads to the loss of already -fixed carbon as CO 2. Photorespiration wastes energy and decreases sugar synthesis, so when rubisco initiates this pathway, it's committing a serious molecular mess. Rubisco binds to either CO 2 or O2 As we know , the enzyme rubisco can use either CO 2 or O2 as a substrate. Rubisco adds whichever molecule it binds to a five -carbon compound called ribulose -1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP). The reaction that uses CO 2 is the first step of the Calvin cycle and leads to the production of sugar. The reaction that uses O2 is the first step o f the photorespiration pathway, which wastes energy and "undoes" the work of the Calvin cycle . When a plant has its stomata, or leaf pores, open CO 2 diffuses in, O2 and water vapor diffuse out, and photorespiration is minimized.

History of Microbiology: Spontaneous Generation Theory
HISTORY OF MICROBIOLOGY: SPONTANEOUS GENERATION THEORY Microbiology often has been defined as the study of organisms and agents too small to be seen clearly by the unaided eye—that is, the study of microorganisms. Because objects less than about one millimeter in diameter cannot be seen clearly and must be examined with a microscope, microbiology is concerned primarily with organisms and agents this small and smaller. Microbial World Microorganisms are everywhere. Almost every natural surface is colonized by microbes (including our skin). Some microorganisms can live quite happily in boiling hot springs, whereas others form complex microbial communities in frozen sea ice. Most microorganisms are harmless to humans. You swallow millions of microbes every day with no ill effects. In fact, we are dependent on microbes to help us digest our food and to protect our bodies from pathogens. Microbes also keep the biosphere running by carrying out essential functions such as decomposition of dead animals and plants. Microbes are the dominant form of life on planet Earth. More than half the biomass on Earth consists of microorganisms, whereas animals constitute only 15% of the mass of living organisms on Earth. This Microbiology course deals with • How and where they live • Their structure • How they derive food and energy • Functions of soil micro flora • Role in nutrient transformation • Relation with plant • Importance in Industries The microorganisms can be divided into two distinct groups based on the nucleus structure: Prokaryotes – The organism lacking true nucleus (membrane enclosed chromosome and nucleolus) and other organelles like mitochondria, golgi body, entoplasmic reticulum etc. are referred as Prokaryotes.

A. Calvin Cycle Discussion on Biology-Online.Org's Forum
Cordova's Finding: Affirming NSF's Definition of Francis K. Fong's Discovery of Margerum's Work of Fiction that Begot the Calvin Cycle and its Z scheme A. Calvin Cycle Discussion on Biology-Online.Org's Forum This post complements NSFfunding.com's Website on Calvin cycle, the dark reactions in photosynthesis. There is an interesting discussion on biology-online.org/biology-forum under the title, "the Calvin cycle???help please." First, the universally accepted interpretation of the Calvin cycle is described: "NADPH is actually electron provided and made blablabla, not hydrogen. And last, but not least this triose called glyceraldehyde phosphate is primarily recycled, that's why is it called 'The Calvin CYCLE,' and why it can work all the time - Just a minor part is transformed to hexose (primarily fructose), the rest has nothing to do with the Calvin cycle." Then, Biology-Online.Org's discussion departs from the accepted interpretation, in that Melvin Calvin, to whom is attributed the Calvin cycle, or the dark reactions in photosynthesis, had nothing to do with the Calvin cycle. The reason is because Calvin and his group at Berkeley published, in their original papers, findings from their C-14 tracer experiments that the "triose called glyceraldehyde phosphate is NOT recycled." Calvin et al reported a carboxylation reaction in photosynthesis which is neither dark nor cyclic, but a photoreductive reaction. The CO2 assimilated from the air by the RuBP (ribulose bisphosphate) results in reductive splitting of the 6-C intermediate into one molecule of PGA (phosphoglycerate) and the other a triose, glyceraldehyde phosphate, which condenses to make glucose and, then, starch.

Abstract Carbon fixation via the Calvin cycle is constrained by the side activity of Rubisco with dioxygen, generating 2-phosphoglycolate. The metabolic recycling of 2-phosphoglycolate, an essential process termed photorespiration, was extensively studied in photoautotrophic organisms, including plants, algae, and cyanobacteria, but remains uncharacterized in chemolithoautotrophic bacteria.

This research earned Calvin a Nobel Prize-an honor that catapulted him to international fame, secured him spots on presidential advisory committees, and got him plenty of textbook mentions. But even though Calvin's claim to fame was his work on photosynthesis, his longest- running passion project was investigating the origins of life in the universe.

Photosynthesisanimation Transc
Almost all life on Earth is solar-powered. Plants, algae, and some bacteria capture light energy from the sun and convert it to chemical energy in a series of reactions called photosynthesis. These organisms produce carbohydrates from simple building blocks like water and carbon dioxide from the environment, and in the process they release oxygen. Photosynthesis nourishes almost the entire living world. Photosynthesis is a set of chemical reactions in which light energy is converted to chemical energy. Light energy enables the movement of electrons from molecules that donate electrons to molecules that accept electrons, but which molecules? Water is the first electron donor. The carbon in carbon dioxide is the ultimate electron acceptor. Carbon dioxide combines with other molecules to form carbohydrates, such as a three-carbon sugar called G3P. Carbohydrates are used to make other organic molecules that plants use to grow and as a source of energy to fuel their lives. An important byproduct of photosynthesis is oxygen. We are going to zoom in on a cross section of a leaf to have a closer look at the center of action for photosynthesis. A leaf has many different types of cells, such as mesophyll cells, epidermal cells, and vascular bundles. Most cells in the middle of a leaf contain large numbers of chloroplasts. Pigments in chloroplasts make these cells green. Chloroplasts are the organelles where photosynthesis occurs. Carbon dioxide from the air enters a leaf through small pores, called stomata, on the outer cell layer. Oxygen formed during photosynthesis also exits the plant through the stomata. The plant transports organic molecules produced in its leaf cells to other cells via the plumbing system found in vascular bundles.

This article is published with open access Abstract Most autotrophs use the Calvin–Benson–Bassham (CBB) cycle for carbon ﬁxation. In contrast, all currently described autotrophs from the Campylobacterota (previously Epsilonproteobacteria) use the reductive tricarboxylic acid cycle (rTCA) instead. We discovered campylobacterotal epibionts (“Candidatus Thiobarba”) of deep-sea mussels that have acquired a complete CBB cycle and may have lost most key genes of the rTCA cycle. Intriguingly, the phylogenies of campylobacterotal CBB cycle genes suggest they were acquired in multiple transfers from Gammaproteobacteria closely 1234567890();,: 1234567890();,: related to sulfur-oxidizing endosymbionts associated with the mussels, as well as from Betaproteobacteria. We hypothesize that “Ca. Thiobarba” switched from the rTCA cycle to a fully functional CBB cycle during its evolution, by acquiring genes from multiple sources, including co-occurring symbionts. We also found key CBB cycle genes in free-living Campylobacterota, suggesting that the CBB cycle may be more widespread in this phylum than previously known. Metatranscriptomics and metaproteomics conﬁrmed high expression of CBB cycle genes in mussel-associated “Ca.
