Abstract excerpt
The phototrophic bacterium Rhodobacter sphaeroides DSM 158 has a periplasmic nitrate reductase which is induced by nitrate and it is not repressed by ammonium or oxygen. In a Tn5 mutant lacking nitrate reductase activity, transposon insertion is localized in a 1.2 kb EcoRI fragment. A 0.6 kb BamH...
