Abstract excerpt
Expression of alternative nitrogenases in Azotobacter vinelandii is repressed by molybdenum. Two strains with Tn5 insertion mutations showed alternative nitrogenase-dependent diazotrophic growth in the presence of Mo. The mutations were in a region which contained four open reading frames (ORFs 1...
