Abstract

AbstractNitrous oxide (N2O), a potent greenhouse gas, can be generated by compositionally complex microbial populations in diverse contexts. Accurately tracking the dominant biological sources of N2O has the potential to improve our understanding of N2O fluxes from soils as well as inform the diagnosis of human infections. Isotopic “Site Preference” (SP) values have been used towards this end, as bacterial and fungal nitric oxide reductases produce N2O with different isotopic fingerprints. Here we show that flavohemoglobin, a hitherto biogeochemically neglected yet widely distributed detoxifying bacterial NO reductase, imparts a distinct SP value onto N2O under anoxic conditions that correlates with typical environmental N2O SP measurements. We suggest a new framework to guide the attribution of N2O biological sources in nature and disease.One-Sentence SummaryDetoxifying nitric oxide reductases impart a distinct isotopic biosignature on nitrous oxide.
