The symbionts live in an organ, inside the worm, connected to the surrounding seawater only via the worm's closed circulatory system. This symbiont association takes place, of necessity, in a zone exposed alternately to hypoxic, sulphide-rich waters and oxic, sulphide-poor, nitrate-rich waters (see reviews by Nelson & Fisher (1995) and Childress & Fisher (1992) for discussions of the biological aspects of hydrothermal vents and <i>Riftia pachyptila</i>). It is not fully understood how <i>R. pachyptila</i> and it symbiont survive the frequent periods of anoxia they must encounter. <i>Riftia pachyptila</i> symbionts have been shown to respire both oxygen and nitrate. <i>R. pachyptila</i> itself contains widely variable levels of nitrite, potentially a product of nitrate respiration, in its blood stream. Thus, it is possible that <i>R. pachyptila</i>'s symbiont may utilize nitrite respiration as well as nitrate respiration in order to survive extended periods of anoxia. In the following paper we present a description of the purification of a nitrite reductase (NR) from <i>R. pachyptila</i> (RpNR). It is not known whether or not this RPNR is assimilatory or dissimilatory. We hope that future experiments by others will determine the role of this abundant protein in the metabolism of <i>R. pachyptila</i>.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"An abundant haem protein in <i>Riftia pachyptila</i> symbionts is a nitrite reductase","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2026-04-19 01:31:18.137597","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+02:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":null,"OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":1998,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2021-02-16","DateCreate":"2004-10-01","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":"WOS:000078751400025","VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":1,"DOI":"10.21411/CBM.A.B0DFC036"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":66642,"PubliDate":1998,"Pagination":"317-320","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"39","Issue":"3-4","BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":42348,"SerRR":"Cahiers de Biologie Marine.
