Spatial and seasonal distribution of selected nitrogen cycle genes in deep waters of the Baltic Proper by Michał Grabski, Michał Grabski, Ewa Kotlarska, Aneta Łuczkiewicz, Konrad Hryniewicz, Grzegorz Węgrzyn, Beata Szymczycha

“…Ammonia oxidation products likely fueled the production of nitrous oxide (N2O), with nitric oxide reductase (NOR)—an enzyme encoded by the Thioglobaceae genome—being responsible for further reduction. Anammox-related genes were not present within sites, thus denitrification pathway enzymes, namely, NOR and N2O reductase (NOS) were responsible for nitrogen loss. …”
