In vitro Nitrate Reductase Activity Assay of Mycolicibacterium smegmatis Crude Extract [PDF]
Bio-Protocol, 2021 Nitrate is one of the major inorganic nitrogen sources for microorganisms. Many bacterial and archaeal lineages can express cytoplasmic assimilatory nitrate reductase (NAS), which catalyzes the rate-limiting reduction of nitrate to nitrite in the nitrate

Mycobacterium smegmatis does not display functional redundancy in nitrate reductase enzymes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2021 Reduction of nitrate to nitrite in bacteria is an essential step in the nitrogen cycle, catalysed by a variety of nitrate reductase (NR) enzymes. The soil dweller, Mycobacterium smegmatis is able to assimilate nitrate and herein we set out to confirm the

Exploration of Nitrate Reductase Metabolic Pathway in Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis [PDF]
International Journal of Genomics, 2017 Based on the ability of nitrate reductase synthesis, Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis is classified into two biovars: Ovis and Equi. Due to the presence of nitrate reductase, the Equi biovar can survive in absence of oxygen.

Isoform-Specific NO Synthesis by Arabidopsis thaliana Nitrate Reductase [PDF]
Plants, 2019 Nitrate reductase (NR) is important for higher land plants, as it catalyzes the rate-limiting step in the nitrate assimilation pathway, the two-electron reduction of nitrate to nitrite.

Nitrate and periplasmic nitrate reductases [PDF]
Chem. Soc. Rev., 2014 The nitrate anion is a simple, abundant and relatively stable species, yet plays a significant role in global cycling of nitrogen, global climate change, and human health. Although it has been known for quite some time that nitrate is an important species environmentally, recent studies have identified potential medical applications.
