Abstract

Both NO and N₂O were identified by GC/MS as gaseous products of nitrite reduction catalyzed by the cytochrome oxidase (nitrite reductase) purified from Pseudomonasaeruginosa. Gas production was inhibited by cyanide. The enzyme also catalyzed the reduction of NO to N₂O. No N₂ was identified as a consequence of either nitrite or NO reduction.
