The NAD+-dependent malic enzyme (DME) has been reported to play a key role supporting nitrogenase activity in bacteroids of Sinorhizobium meliloti. Genetic evidence for a similar role in Bradyrhizobium japonicum USDA110 was obtained by constructing a dme mutant. Soybean plants inoculated with a dme...
