Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesMonitoring Land Use and Land Cover Effects on Water Quality in Cheung Ek Lake using ASTER ImagesNara Im, Kensuke Kawamura, Endan Suwandana, Yuji SakunoCheung Ek Lake is the biggest natural treatment plant for nearly 80% of wastewater and storm-water from Phnom Penh city. Land Use and Land Cover (LULC) changes of the lake and its catchment area could deteriorate capacity of the lake in purifying wastewater and affect to its water quality. The study aims to assess the relationship between LULC changes and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 3 Apr 2015 · 8,017 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesDiscovery of Evolutionary Divergence of Biological Nitrogen Fixation and Photosynthesis: Fine Tuning of Biogenesis of the NifH and the ChlL by a Peptidyl-Prolyl Cis/Trans IsomeraseNara Gavini, Sinny Delacroix, Kelvin Harris Jr., Lakshmi PulakatProblem statement: Despite the structural and functional similarities between the nitrogenase that performs biological nitrogen fixation reaction and the Dark Protochlorphyllide Oxidoreductase (DPOR) that performs chlorophyll-biosynthesis, attempts to substitute nitrogenase-components with DPOR-components have hitherto failed. This investigation was undertaken to test if Chlamydomonas reinhardtii protochlorophyllide (Pchlide) reductase (ChlL) that shares some structural similarity with Nitrogenase Reductase (NifH) could complement the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 17 Feb 2012 · 7,620 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesNifH: Structural and Mechanistic Similarities with Proteins Involved in Diverse Biological ProcessesSurobhi Lahiri, Lakshmi Pulakat, Nara GaviniThe NifH protein is a subunit of the nitrogenase enzyme that catalyzes the reduction of atmospheric nitrogen to ammonia. This protein contains highly conserved regions including the nucleotide binding sites, metal center ligands and the Switch I and Switch II domains. A number of proteins have structural and mechanistic similarities as well as evolutionary relationships with the NifH protein, notable … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 6,674 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesAT1-IR-beta Association: A New Mechanism for the Inhibition of Insulin Receptor Function in Breast CancerLakshmi Pulakat, Ravindra Kolhe, Nara GaviniEpidemiological evidence show that increased mortality in breast cancer is linked to hypertension and insulin resistance. Because Angiotensin II (Ang II), a hormone implicated in hypertension and insulin resistance, is a normal mitogen for breast tissue and elevated expression of the Ang II receptor AT1 is seen in breast cancer, we analyzed the effects of Ang II exposure on the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,019 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesThe NifX Protein is Involved in the Final Stages of FeMo-cofactor Transport to the MoFe ProteinSurobhi Lahiri, Byron Cole, Lakshmi Pulakat, Nara GaviniThe nitrogenase enzyme catalyzes the reduction of dinitrogen to ammonia and is composed of the Fe and MoFe proteins. The iron molybdenum cofactor (FeMo-co) of the MoFe protein is the site of active substrate reduction. The NifX protein has also been suggested to have a role in the FeMo-co synthesis, although its exact role is still open to investigation. We … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,264 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesGenetic Complementation Studies of Human Pin1 in Azotobacter vinelandii Revealed that it Requires Amino Terminus of the NifM to Deliver PPIase Effect to the Fe-protein of NitrogenaseKumaraguru Raja, Lakshmi Pulakat, Nara GaviniThe NifM is a peptidyl prolyl cis-trans isomerase and is required for the maturation and activation of the Fe protein of Nitrogenase. Since the carboxyl terminus of NifM is similar to the Human Pin1, we expressed the Human Pin1 in A. vinelandii BG98, a nifM mutant strain containing a kanamycin insertion and found that it could not complement the function … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 6,710 accessesView PDFCite
