Anabaena strains have long been used as model organisms for studying heterocyst development and nitrogen fixation in cyanobacteria [ 1, 64].
Enthesitis, or inflammation of the entheses (the site of insertion of ligaments, tendons, and other tissue into bone), is another typical feature of AS that can contribute to new bone development and joint fixation (ankylosis).
Mutant plants impaired in nodule development and efficient nitrogen fixation were selected for further genetic and phenotypic analysis.
These data provide detailed information on the Anabaena transcriptome as filaments undergo heterocyst development and begin nitrogen fixation.
A tight connection between zinc and phosphorous uptake in plants has been observed, and a large requirement for phosphorous was demonstrated both during nodule development and establishment of nitrogen fixation under low nitrogen conditions [64].
Hence, future trials will be targeted to clinical application of piezoelectric endoscopic transnasal craniotomies (PETCs) and the development of fixation techniques of the bone flap by means of, for example, microscrews, resorbable "rivets," or the application of the "gasket seal" procedure described by Garcia-Navarro et al. [ 13].
A strong up-regulation of several peptide transporter genes was also detected, probably reflecting the importance of amino acid transport during nodule development and maintenance of symbiotic nitrogen fixation.
Cognate genes involved in nodule development and the establishment of N fixation have been identified and cloned from multiple species [ 42, 43].
The nature of carbon precursor determines the porosity development and surface chemistry of supports, what results in a different dispersion and fixation of active phase.
For the development of sandwich ELISA assays on the microchip, we employed piezoelectric inkjet printing for deposition and fixation of the 1st antibody on the microchannel surface.
