Bell beans

Cover crops Plants that are grown to be turned back into the soil for nutrients and organic matter. Two examples of cover crops are vetch and bell beans. 

The recoveries of nitrofen and oxyflourfen from green bean, bell pepper, lettuce and carrot fortified with 0.25 mg kg were obtained using GC/MS. The average recoveries ranged from 106 to 127% and the LOD was 0.05 mg kg ...

In Silverthorne, Sunshine Cafe (Summit Place Shopping Center, a 970-468-6663) is a local favorite for breakfast before hitting the slopes. Try the vegetarian breakfast burrito - bell peppers, onions, tomatoes, refried beans and sliced avocado rolled into a flour tortilla and topped with a spicy vegetarian green chili. This friendly mountain cafe is also open for lunch and dinner and has a good selection of vegetarian entrees.

The kinetics of PAPs exhibit a bell-shaped pH—rate dependency, typical of acid—base catalysis. NMR data obtained with recombinant human PAP between pH 5.5 and pH 7.1 indicates that pA 2 does not involve a metal ligand, and may instead be due to the ionization of one of the two conserved histidine residues near the active site. It has been proposed that one of these histidine residue acts as a general acid in protonation of the leaving group. ° The other histidine residue (H92 in the human PAP and H202 in the kidney bean PAP ) has been suggested to assist in substrate positioning. 

PAPs are optimally active at weakly acidic conditions, with pH optima ranging from 5.0 to 6.3. The PAPs exhibit bell-shaped pH-rate profiles, typified by the kidney bean enzyme, which has an optimum of 5.9 and apparent p iTa values of 4.8 and 6.9. Very similar pAg values are found for the bovine spleen and recombinant human PAPs. Because the lower pffa is also found in pH variations of the EPR spectra and of the charge-transfer band (28), it is attributed to the deprotonation of an Fe +-coordinated water molecule.
