Abstract
Two activites causing nitrite disappearance are found in extracts of Neurospora; one, inducible by nitrate or nitrite and present only in nitrite-utilizing strains, catalyze the stoichiometric reduction of nitrite to ammonia; the other, present in all strains under all conditions, causes the disappearance of nitrite to something other than ammonia. The latter activity has a molecular weight of about 600 and may contain an oligopeptide, a metal, and an SH group(s). It has no known physiological function.Entities:
