Abstract excerpt
Nitrate transport mutants from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and strains derived from them upon transformation with plasmids containing the C. reinhardtii nar2/Nrt2;1 or nar2/Nrt2;2 genes have been used to study nitrate and nitrite transport systems. Mutants lacking nitrate assimilation clustered genes showed a high affinity nitrite transporter activity (system 3), which was subject to ammonium inhibition and...
