The factors affecting the rate of nitrate reduction and the nitrate reductase content in Selmomonas ruminantium were examined. The rate of nitrate reduction per cell mass was higher when S. ruminantium was grown on lactate than when grown on glucose, and the rate was further enhanced when grown on succinate. The nitrate reduction rate was parallel to the nitrate reductase content in cells, suggesting that the amount of nitrate reductase limits the rate of nitrate reduction. The amount of nitrate reductase was inversely related to growth rate. The growth rate was related to the level of intracellular ATP, which was inversely related to the levels of ADP and AMP. The ratio of NADH to NAD(+) was related to the rate of nitrate reduction and to the amount of nitrate reductase. From these results, it is conceivable that the synthesis of nitrate reductase is regulated in response to the sufficiency of energy and electron supply. Intracellular concentrations of adenine nucleotides and pyridine nucleotides may be the regulating factors. The amount of nitrate reductase was increased by the presence of nitrate, suggesting that the synthesis of nitrate reductase is enhanced by nitrate. In addition, nitrate reduction altered the fermentation pattern as a result of electron consumption. (C) 2001 Academic Press.
