Research Article | Molecular Biology and PhysiologyClustering as a Means To Control Nitrate Respiration Efficiency and Toxicity in Escherichia coliMost bacteria rely on the redox activity of respiratory complexes embedded in the cytoplasmic membrane to gain energy in the form of ATP and of an electrochemical gradient established across the membrane. Nevertheless, production of harmful and toxic nitric oxide by actively growing bacteria as either an intermediate or side-product of nitrate respiration challenges how homeostasis control is exerted. Here, we show that components of...
