Item Impact of heavy metals on glutamine synthetase and nitrogenase activity in Nostoc calcicola.(J-Stage, 1987) Verma, Sanjay KumarItem Evidence for energy-dependent copper efflux as a mechanism of Cu2+ resistance in the cyanobacterium Nostoc calcicola(OUP, 1991) Verma, Sanjay KumarWild-type Nostoc calcicola carried out oxygenic photosynthesis extremely sensitive to copper. A Cu(2+)-resistant mutant (Cu-R1) of the cyanobacterium grew normally at high concentrations of Cu2+. Its ability to grow under such conditions was found to be due to mutational acquisition of an energy-dependent efficient system of Cu(2+)-efflux, which rendered Cu(2+)-inhibited oxygenic photosynthesis fully reversible.Item Copper toxicity and phosphate utilization in the cyanobacterium Nostoc calcicola(Springer, 1993) Verma, Sanjay Kumar
