Detecting Nitrous Oxide Reductase (nosZ) Genes in Soil Metagenomes: Method Development and Implications for the Nitrogen Cycle

Microbial activities in soils, such as (incomplete) denitrification, represent major sources of nitrous oxide (N(2)O), a potent greenhouse gas. The key enzyme for mitigating N(2)O emissions is NosZ, which catalyzes N(2)O reduction to N(2). We recently described “atypical” functional NosZ proteins en...
