Valente, F. M. A., Oliveira, A. S. F., Gnadt, N., Pacheco, I., Coelho, A. V., Xavier, A. V., …Pereira, I. A. C. (2005)
Hydrogenases in Desulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough: structural and physiologic characterisation of the membrane-bound [NiFeSe] hydrogenase. Journal of biological inorganic chemistry : JBIC : a publication of the Society of Biological Inorganic Chemistry, 10(6), 667-682. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00775-005-0022-4
The genome of Desulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough (DvH) encodes for six hydrogenases (Hases), making it an interesting organism to study the role of these proteins in sulphat...

Photosynthetic responses to Cu2+ exposure are independent of light acclimation and uncoupled from growth inhibition in Fucus serratus (Phaeophyceae).

Journal Article
Nielsen, H. D., & Nielsen, S. L. (2005)
Photosynthetic responses to Cu2+ exposure are independent of light acclimation and uncoupled from growth inhibition in Fucus serratus (Phaeophyceae). Marine Pollution Bulletin, 51(8-12), (715-721). doi:10.1016/j.marpolbul.2005.02.016. ISSN 0025-326X
We have studied the effect of light acclimation on photosynthetic responses and growth during Cu2+ exposure (0–0.84 μM) in the brown seaweed Fucus serratus. Measurements of ch...
