Abstract
A mutant of E. coli K12 is described which is unable to reduce nitrate with a variety of physiological electron donors but which retains nitrate reductase activity with the artificial electron donor benzyl viologen. The affected gene, chlI, located close to chlC, encodes the cytochrome bNR apoprotein.Keywords
