Akj. Sallal et Na. Nimer, ETHANOLIC DEHYDRATION AND ITS EFFECT ON MEMBRANE-BOUND ENZYMES OF CHLOROGLOEOPSIS-FRITSCHII AND CHLORELLA-PYRENOIDOSA, World journal of microbiology & biotechnology, 10(2), 1994, pp. 187-190
Ethanolic dehydration (20% to 70%) of the thylakoid membranes of Chlor
ogloeopsis fritschii resulted in an 8% to 58% loss of glutamine synthe
tase activity. In Chlorella pyrenoidosa, hydroxypyruvate reductase and
fumarase, marker enzymes of the peroxisomes and mitochondria, respect
ively, diffused from the organelles on dehydration.
