Anaerobic nitrate reduction divergently governs population expansion of the enteropathogen Vibrio cholerae.
To survive and proliferate in the absence of oxygen, many enteric pathogens can undergo anaerobic respiration within the host by using nitrate (NO(3)(-)) as electron acceptor (1,2). In these bacteria, NO(3)(-) is typically reduced by a nitrate reductase to nitrite (NO(2)(-)), a toxic intermediate th...
