Nitrate respiration in the actinomycete Streptomyces coelicolor.
Streptomyces coelicolor is an obligate aerobic, filamentous soil-dwelling bacterium. Remarkably, the genome of S. coelicolor has three copies of the narGHJI operon that encodes respiratory nitrate reductase. This review summarizes our current views on the requirements for multiple nitrate reductases in S. coelicolor.
