Identification of the formate dehydrogenases and genetic determinants of formate-dependent nitrite reduction by Escherichia coli K12.

Journal of general microbiology - 1 Aug 1993

Darwin A, Tormay P, Page L, Griffiths L, Cole J

Abstract excerpt

The formate dehydrogenases of Escherichia coli involved in electron transfer from formate to nitrite (Nrf activity: nitrite reduction by formate) have been identified. No previously undescribed selenoprotein was detected in bacteria grown under conditions optimal for the expression of Nrf activity. The Nrf activities of single mutants defective in either FdhN or FdhH were between 50 and 60% that of the parental...
