The bioenergetics of denitrification

Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, 1983
In anaerobically grown Paracoccus denitrificans the dissimilatory nitrate reductase is linked to the respiratory chain at the level of cytochromes b. Electron transport to nitrite and nitrous oxide involves c-type cytochromes. During electron transport from NADH to nitrate one phosphorylation site is passed, whereas two sites are passed during electron

Structural basis of denitrification

Biological Chemistry, 2004
Denitrification represents an important part of the biogeochemical cycle of the essential element nitrogen. It constitutes the predominant pathway of the reductive dissimilation of nitrate in the environment. Via four enzymatic reactions, nitrate is transformed stepwise to nitrite (NO2-), nitric oxide (NO), and nitrous oxide (N2O), to finally yield ...

Denitrification

1999
Abstract Denitrification is the reduction of the nitrogen oxides, nitrate (NO3-) and nitrite (NO2-), to the gases nitric oxide (NO), nitrous oxide (NzO), and dinitrogen (N2). The process is carried out mainly by facultative anaerobes, i.e., organisms that normally use oxygen (02) to accept electrons during respiration but in its absence ...

Denitrification in Rhizobium

Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 1978
Thirty-three strains of Rhizobium were examined for their reduction of nitrate under anoxic conditions. Three patterns of dissimilatory nitrate reduction were observed: (1) reduction to N2O and N2 (denitrification), (2) reduction to and subsequent accumulation of NO2− (nitrate respiration), (3) no reduction. Strains of R.

Denitrification capacity and denitrification potential of subsurface soils

Communications in Soil Science and Plant Analysis, 1992
Abstract Although numerous studies of denitrification in surface soils have been reported, few attempts have been made to study denitrifying activity in subsurface soils. We collected samples of four Iowa soil profiles to a depth of 3 m and measured their population of denitrifying bacteria and their capacity and potential for denitrification.
