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
