Activity of nitrate reductase in Desulfovibrio vulgaris VKM 1388

Evidence was obtained of the inhibitory effect of nitrate on the metabolism of Desulfovibrio vulgaris 1388. Nitrate is reduced only at low concentrations and in the presence of sulfate in the medium. Genetic data suggest that the genome of D. vulgaris 1388 contains the information about the γ subuni...

Description
Summary:Evidence was obtained of the inhibitory effect of nitrate on the metabolism of Desulfovibrio vulgaris 1388. Nitrate is reduced only at low concentrations and in the presence of sulfate in the medium. Genetic data suggest that the genome of D. vulgaris 1388 contains the information about the γ subunit and possibly the NarG catalytic subunit of the membrane-bound nitrate reductase.
