Abstract excerpt
T. thermophilus HB8 contains a nitrate reductase gene cluster which is absent from closely related strains. This cluster encodes 4 ORFs (a-d) similar in organization and protein sequence to those encoded by respiratory nitrate reductase operons (narGHJI) of Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas fluorescens, and Thiosphaera pantothropha. The highest similarity is shown between the proteins encoded by...
