Abstract excerpt
The role of the blue copper protein azurin and cytochrome C551 as the possible electron donors to nitrite reductase in the dissimilatory nitrate reduction pathway in Pseudomonas aeruginosa have been investigated. It was shown by an in vivo approach with mutant strains of P. aeruginosa deficient in one or both of these electron-transfer proteins that cytochrome C551, but not azurin, is functional in this pathway....
