| Abstract | Most oceanic dimethyl sulphide (DMS) is produced through the enzymatic cleavage of dimethylsulphoniopropionate (DMSP), a process governed by the activity of DMSP-lyases in algae and bacteria. Laboratory and field experiments with the DMS-producing coccolithophorid Emiliania huxleyi have advanced our understanding of algal DMSP lyases. However, despite their central role in the global biogeochemical cycle of sulphur, little is known about the physiological and biochemical properties of this group of isozymes. Here we investigate the apparent substrate kinetic properties of two axenic E. huxleyi cultures (CCMP 373 and CCMP 379) under two light conditions and a mesocosm assemblage dominated by this species. Assays of in vivo and in vitro DMSP-lyase activity (DLA) were used to estimate the kinetic parameters Km and Vmax. Whereas in vivo DLA was not detected in CCMP 379, both laboratory cultures showed high DLA during in vitro tests. The mesocosm population was initially characterised by low substrate affinity (low Vmax and high Km), but shifted to a high affinity community when more dissolved DMSP became available after the collapse of the E. huxleyi bloom. At natural DMSP concentrations, DMS production is probably more affected by changes in Km than Vmax and future studies should include further investigations of the kinetic properties of DMSP-lyases. |

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.
