| Abstract | Molybdenum enzymes are known to underpin key reactions in the biological carbon, nitrogen and sulfur cycles, however, the diversity of these enzymes and the reactions they catalyze especially in bacteria is much greater than currently known. We have analysed the molybdoproteome of the soil bacterium Starkeya novella as a function of growth mode and identified a complete pathway for Mo–PPT synthesis, a Mo transporter and 18 gene loci encoding mononuclear Mo-enzymes of the Xanthine Oxidase, Sulfite Oxidase and DMSO Reductase enzyme families. This relatively high number of Mo enzymes may be a specific property of the taxonomic group (Xanthobacteraceae) to which S. novella belongs. About 70% of S. novella Mo enzymes have no characterized close relatives, and two thirds of them are expressed under the conditions analysed, which included heterotrophy, methylotrophy, chemolithotrophy and mixotrophy. Many enzymes were clearly regulated in response to either the type of carbon source present in the growth medium or the presence of thiosulfate, and two, in particular, including an uncharacterized enzyme of the XO family (Snov_3370) were highly abundant under all growth conditions tested. We also uncovered novel enzymes with links to growth in the presence of thiosulfate, such as a PaoABC-type aldehyde oxidoreductase and an uncharacterized group 1 sulfite oxidase family enzyme, although the function of these enzymes during sulfur oxidation is unclear at present. Clearly, further work is needed to uncover the significance of these enzymes for cell metabolism. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
