Cloning and nitrate induction of nitrate reductase mRNA [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1986 Nitrate is the major source of nitrogen taken from the soil by higher plants but requires reduction to ammonia prior to incorporation into amino acids. The first enzyme in the reducing pathway is a nitrate-inducible enzyme, nitrate reductase (EC 1.6.6.1).

An integrated biochemical system for nitrate assimilation and nitric oxide detoxification in Bradyrhizobium japonicum [PDF]
, 2016 Rhizobia are recognized to establish N(2)-fixing symbiotic interactions with legume plants. Bradyrhizobium japonicum, the symbiont of soybeans, can denitrify and grow under free-living conditions with nitrate (NO(3)(−)) or nitrite (NO(2)(−)) as sole ...

Nitrous oxide production in soil isolates of nitrate-ammonifying bacteria [PDF]
, 2012 Here we provide the first demonstration of the potential for N2O production by soil-isolated nitrate-ammonifying bacteria under different C and N availabilities, building on characterizations informed from model strains.

The Arabidopsis NLP7 gene regulates nitrate signaling via NRT1.1-dependent pathway in the presence of ammonium. [PDF]
, 2018 Nitrate is not only an important nutrient but also a signaling molecule for plants. A few of key molecular components involved in primary nitrate responses have been identified mainly by forward and reverse genetics as well as systems biology, however ...

Journal of Taibah University for Science, 2016 Nitrate reductase catalyses the oxidation of NAD(P)H and the reduction of nitrate to nitrite. NR serves as a central point for the integration of metabolic pathways by governing the flux of reduced nitrogen through several regulatory mechanisms in plants,

Highly diverse nirK genes comprise two major clades that harbour ammonium-producing denitrifiers [PDF]
, 2016 Background: Copper dependent nitrite reductase, NirK, catalyses the key step in denitrification, i.e. nitrite reduction to nitric oxide. Distinct structural NirK classes and phylogenetic clades of NirK-type denitrifiers have previously been observed ...

Nitrate respiration in chemoautotrophic symbionts of the bivalve Lucinoma aequizonata [PDF]
, 1993 Chemoautotrophic bacteria live symbiotically in gills of Lucinoma aequizonata, an infaunal clam inhabiting an oxygen-poor environment. These intracellular symbionts respire nitrate, i.e.

Immunological comparison of the NADH:nitrate reductase from different cucumber tissues
Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014 Soluble nitrate reductase from cucumber roots (Cucumis sativus L.) was isolated and purified with blue-Sepharose 4B. Specific antibodies against the NR protein were raised by immunization of a goat.
