The intracellular ratio of 2-oxoglutarate to glutamine has been analyzed under nutritional conditions leading to different activity levels of nitrate-assimilating enzymes in Phormidium laminosum (Agardh) Gom. This non-N2-fixing cyanobacterium adapted to the available nitrogen source by modifying its

The two enzymes involved in the assimilatory pathway of nitrate in Azotobacter vinelandii are corregulated. Nitrate reductase and nitrite reductase are inducible by nitrate and nitrite. Ammonium represses induction by nitrate of both reductases. Repression by ammonium is higher in media containing 2
Nitrate uptake and nitrite efflux patterns in Nostoc MAC showed a rapid phase followed by their saturation. Nitrite efflux was maximum in nitrate medium whereas the cells incubated in N2 and NH 4 (+) media exhibited a decreased nitrite efflux activity. The simultaneous presence of NH 4 (+) and nitra
A region of the genome of the cyanobacterium Synechococcus R2, that bears a cluster of genes involved in nitrate assimilation, has been cloned and the relative positions of some of the genes in the region have been determined. Mutations generated by insertion of an antibiotic-resistance gene cassett
