  2. Zinc carboxypeptidase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zinc_carboxypeptidase

    The carboxypeptidase A family can be divided into two subfamilies: carboxypeptidase H (regulatory) and carboxypeptidase A (digestive). [1] Members of the H family have longer C-termini than those of family A, [2] and carboxypeptidase M (a member of the H family) is bound to the membrane by a glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchor, unlike the majority of the M14 family, which are soluble.

    Anabaena, in association with the water fern Azolla, can contribute nitrogen up to 60 kg/ha/season and can also enrich soils with organic matter. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] Seaweeds are rich in various types of mineral elements (potassium, phosphorus, trace elements, etc.), hence they are extensively used as a form of manure replacement by people of coastal ...

  4. Organic hydroponics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organic_hydroponics

    Successful use of organic fertilizers can be more difficult in hydroponic systems than in fields, where beneficial microbes in the soil help to break down organic fertilizer into nutrients that are usable by the plant. When grown in soilless substrates, organic fertilizers may not be readily broken down by microbes and can inhibit plant growth. [8]
