    Notes: Abstract Strains of the obligately aerobic nitrogen fixing organismAzotobacter chroococcum were constructed which contained defined chromosomal deletions in which the nitrogenase structural genenifHDK cluster (nifH for the polypeptide of the Fe-protein component of nitrogenase andnifD andnifK for the alpha and beta subunits respectively of the MoFe-protein component of the enzyme) was replaced by a kanamycin resistance gene. N2 fixation was nevertheless observed in deletion strains though only in a molybdenum-deficient medium or in spontaneously arising tungstate-resistant derivatives. In comparison with the parent strain growing in molybdenum-sufficient medium, diazotrophic growth was slow and the nitrogenase activity in vivo was characterised by disproportionately low rates of C2H2-reduction compared to H2-evolution and relative insensitivity of H2-evolution to inhibition by C2H2. The findings show reiteration of functional structural genes for nitrogenase inA. chroococcum consistent with our previous observation of twonifH genes in this organism and detection in this work of a secondnifK-like sequence in the genomes of both parent and deletion strains whenA. chroococcum nifK DNA was used as a probe.
