Abstract: | Summary Carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP) and pentachlorophenol (PCP), two powerful uncouplers of phosphorylation, specifically inhibit the assimilation of nitrite in the course of nitrate reduction. These results support our former conclusion that high-energy phosphate is involved in the metabolism of nitrite. |
