Characterisation of Escherichia coli K-12 mutants defective in formate-dependent nitrite reduction: essential roles for hemN and the menFDBCE operon.

Archives of microbiology - 1 Nov 1997

Tyson K, Metheringham R, Griffiths L, Cole J

Abstract excerpt

Three Escherichia coli mutants defective in formate-dependent nitrite reduction (Nrf activity) were characterised. Two of the mutants, JCB354 and JCB356, synthesized all five c-type cytochromes previously characterised in anaerobic cultures of E. coli. The third mutant, JCB355, was defective for both cytochrome b and cytochrome c synthesis, but only during anaerobic growth. The insertion sites of the transposon...
