Fe protein (dinitrogenase reductase) activity is reversibly inactivated by dinitrogenase reductase ADP-ribosyltransferase (DraT) in response to an increase in the ammonium concentration or a decrease in cellular energy in Azospirillum brasilense, Rhodospirillum rubrum, and Rhodobacter capsulatus. The ADP-ribosyl is removed

Oxidative cleavage of cycloalkene-1-carboxylates, made from the corresponding carboxylic acids, and subsequent oxidation of the resulting ketoaldehyde afforded the important 1-monoesters of 2-ketoalkanedioic acids. Thus ozonolysis of octyl cyclobutene-1-carboxylate followed by sodium chlorite oxidation afforded the 1-monooctyl 2-ketoglutarate. This is
