possesses two high‐affinity nitrate transporters, encoded by the
nrtA
and the
nrtB
genes. Mutants expressing either gene grew normally on 1–10 mM nitrate as sole nitrogen source, whereas the double mutant failed to grow on nitrate concentrations up to 200 mM. These genes appear to be regulated coordinately in all...
