Metals/Ions Comment Organism Structure
NaCl Adc1 exhibits a 2.9fold and 2.2fold increase in activity in buffer containing 250 mM NaCl and 500 mM NaCl, respectively, compared to salt-free buffer. The NaCl-stimulation of the activities of Adc1 and Adc2 might account for the increase in agmatine concentration in Synechocystis under high salt conditions in vivo Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803
NaCl Adc2 exhibits a 14fold and 13fold increase in activity in buffer containing 250 mM NaCl and 500 mM NaCl, respectively, compared to salt-free buffer. The NaCl-stimulation of the activities of Adc1 and Adc2 might account for the increase in agmatine concentration in Synechocystis under high salt conditions in vivo Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction inactivation of two arginine decarboxylases results in reduction of spermidine content and increases biofilm formation in Synechocystis sp. strain PCC 6803. Disruption of the adc genes in Synechocystis results in formation of biofilms even under non-stress conditions, e.g. the absence of salt, while salt stress decreases polyamine content in Synechocystis Synechocystis sp.

PCC 6803
metabolism bacteria and plants possess an alternative pathway for putrescine biosynthesis from arginine through the action of arginine decarboxylase (Adc) catalyzing the initial step. The product of that reaction, agmatine, is subsequently converted to putrescine, spermidine, and spermine via a series of steps in the polyamine synthetic pathway. The two arginine decarboxylases, isozymes Adc1 and Adc2, possess function in the polyamine synthesis pathway, there is a negative correlation between biofilm formation and polyamine content Synechocystis sp.

physiological function of the two isozymes in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803, Adc2 has high arginine decarboxylase activity, whereas Adc1 is much less active Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803
physiological function of the two isozymes in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803, Adc2 has high arginine decarboxylase activity, whereas Adc1 is much less active. Adc2 is the major arginine decarboxylase, Adc2 activity leads to inhibition of biofilm formation Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803
