Microaerobic Lifestyle at Nanomolar O<sub>2</sub> Concentrations Mediated by Low-Affinity Terminal Oxidases in Abundant Soil Bacteria

ABSTRACT High-affinity terminal oxidases (TOs) are believed to permit microbial respiration at low oxygen (O2) levels. Genes encoding such oxidases are widespread, and their existence in microbial genomes is taken as an indicator for microaerobic respiration. We combined respiratory kinetics determi...
