pubmed:abstractText |
We isolated Mu dI1734 insertion mutants of Klebsiella pneumoniae that were unable to assimilate nitrate or nitrite as the sole nitrogen source during aerobic growth (Nas- phenotype). The mutants were not altered in respiratory (anaerobic) nitrate and nitrite reduction or in general nitrogen control. The mutations were linked and thus defined a single locus (nas) containing genes required for nitrate assimilation. beta-Galactosidase synthesis in nas+/phi(nas-lacZ) merodiploid strains was induced by nitrate or nitrite and was inhibited by exogenous ammonia or by anaerobiosis. beta-Galactosidase synthesis in phi(nas-lacZ) haploid (Nas-) strains was nearly constitutive during nitrogen-limited aerobic growth and uninducible during anaerobic growth. A general nitrogen control regulatory mutation (ntrB4) allowed nitrate induction of phi(nas-lacZ) expression during anaerobic growth. This and other results suggest that the apparent anaerobic inhibition of phi(nas-lacZ) expression was due to general nitrogen control, exerted in response to ammonia generated by anaerobic (respiratory) nitrate reduction.
