Inverse Isotope Effect

The addition of 1 mM SeO42− significantly affected the physiology and metabolism of Clostridium pasteurianum growing on SO42− in the following ways: (1) the generation time was increased, essentially producing a biphasic growth curve, (2) cells became elongated and chains formed, (3) no H2S was liberated during the stationary phase, (4) assimilatory SO32− reductase activity was decreased, (5) ferredoxin levels decreased by a factor of 4. The effects of 1 mM SeO42− on Clostridium pasteurianum growing on SO32− were comparatively minor.H2S evolution in the stationary phase decreased by a factor of 2 and the δ34S maximum in the inverse isotope effect pattern occurred at a slightly lower percent H2S evolution. The deleterious effects of SeO42− addition were less pronounced than those associated with SeO32− addition. SeO32− but not SeO42− was reduced to elemental selenium by both whole cells and crude extracts.

Sulfate Metabolism

Growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in minimal salts – glucose – SO42− medium with varying concentrations of pantothenate (0–1000 μg/L) produced changes in the cellular lipid content and in the ratio of saturated to unsaturated fatty acids. Substantial differences in SO42−diffusion were also observed with changes in pantothenate concentration. During sulfate reduction, the δ34S value of the evolved sulfide varied with the pantothenate concentration ranging from −31‰ in the absence of pantothenate to 0‰ at 400−1000 μg/L pantothenate. The isotope selectivity is related to the effect of pantothenate concentration on cellular metabolism.
