    Creation of geographic information systems for environmental management and protection

    No full text
    Oil production is a complex process having multiple impacts on the environment. A number of issues related to evaluation and management of such impacts may be tackled using modern information technologies such as creation of dedicated geographic information systems for environmental management and protection. Applicability of such systems depends on requirements to the level of incoming data generalization. The article discusses the approaches to creation of ecological and geographic information systems of regional and local generalization level applied in Tatneft OAO

    Tracing the 'ninth sulfur' of the nitrogenase cofactor via a semi-synthetic approach.

    The M-cluster is the [(homocitrate)MoFe7S9C] active site of nitrogenase that is derived from an 8Fe core assembled viacoupling and rearrangement of two [Fe4S4] clusters concomitant with the insertion of an interstitial carbon and a 'ninth sulfur'. Combining synthetic [Fe4S4] clusters with an assembly protein template, here we show that sulfite can give rise to the ninth sulfur that is incorporated in the catalytically important belt region of the cofactor after the radical S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent carbide insertion and the concurrent 8Fe-core rearrangement have already taken place. Based on the differential reactivity of the formed cluster species, we also propose a new [Fe8S8C] cluster intermediate, the L*-cluster, which is similar to the [Fe8S9C] L-cluster, but lacks the ninth sulfur from sulfite. This work provides a semi-synthetic tool for protein reconstitution that could be widely applicable for the functional analysis of other FeS systems
