Catechol Formation and Melanization by Na(+) -Dependent Azotobacter chroococcum: a Protective Mechanism for Aeroadaptation?

Aeroadaptive microaerophilic Azotobacter chroococcum 184 produced a cell-associated black pigment when grown at high aeration rates under nitrogen-fixing conditions. This pigment was shown to be a catechol melanin. Polyphenol oxidase activity was detected in cell extracts of cells grown for 72 h. Me...
