“…In support of this, a putative pentaerythritol trinitrate reductase (Q4KHN1, p = 0.001) which reductively liberates nitrite from nitrate esters and degrades xenobiotics such as 2,4,6‐trinitrotoluene (TNT) (French et al, 1996 , 1998 ) was significantly increased with both NA treatments. Ammonium oxidation pathways have been well characterized in Pseudomonads and typically involve ammonia monooxygenase producing hydroxylamine which is subsequently oxidized to nitrite (Hollocher et al, 1981 ). As a result, CuNiR could then be upregulated to deal with excess nitrite.…”

“…Within the granule, aerobic AOB oxidise ammonium (NH 4 + ) to nitrite (NO 2 - ) through the reaction of nitritation while creating an anoxic condition by consuming oxygen. Low dissolved oxygen concentration (DO) combined with the accumulation of NO 2 - promotes the growth of AMX, which convert the remaining NH 4 + and NO 2 - into nitrate (NO 3 - ) and dinitrogen gas (N 2 ) [ 18 , 19 ]. In the PN/A process, the oxygen demand is lower and external carbon source are not needed.…”

“…Σ' αυτό μετέχουν δύο διαφορετικά ενζυμικά σύμπλοκα των ΑΟΜ. Συγκεκριμένα το ένζυμο αμμωνιακή μονοοξυγενάση (ammonia monooxygenase -ΑΜΟ), το οποίο είναι μια διαμεμβρανική πρωτεΐνη πρόσδεσης, που μετέχει στην οξείδωση της αμμωνίας σε υδροξυλαμίνη και στη συνέχεια το ένζυμο οξειδοαναγωγάση της υδροξυλαμίνης (hydroxylamine oxireductase -ΗΑΟ) που μετέχει στην οξείδωση της υδροξυλαμίνης σε νιτρώδη ιόντα (Σχήμα 1) (Hollocher et. al., 1981;McTavish et al, 1993;Hooper et al, 1997;Rotthauwe et al, 1997).…”
