Abstract

Klebsiella pneumoniae M5a1 grows well in the presence or absence of molybdenum in media containing excess NH 4 + . However, growth on N 2 is completely dependent on the presence of molybdenum in the medium. Tungstate competes with the molybdate requirement during growth on N 2 . In molybdenum-depleted medium, neither protein component of nitrogenase is active and neither component can be detected antigenically. These data provide evidence that molybdenum is an inducer of nitrogenase synthesis.
