Importance of the two dissimilatory (Nar) nitrate reductases in the growth and nitrate reduction of the methylotrophic marine bacterium Methylophaga nitratireducenticrescens JAM1
Methylophaga nitratireducenticrescens JAM1 is the only reported Methylophaga species capable of growing under anaerobic conditions with nitrate as electron acceptor. Its genome encodes a truncated denitrification pathway, which includes two nitrate reductases, Nar1 and Nar2; two nitric oxide reducta...
