Phototrophic growth of the moderate halotolerant Rhodobacter capsulatus strain E1F1 in media containing up to 0.3 M NaCl was dependent on the nitrogen source used. In these media, increased growth rates and growth levels were observed in the presence of reduced nitrogen sources such as ammonium and amino acids. When the medium contained an oxidized nitrogen source (dinitrogen or nitrate), increases in salinity severely inhibited phototrophic growth. However, the addition of glycine betaine promoted halotolerance and allowed the cells to grow in 0.2 M NaCl. Inhibition of diazotrophic growth by salinity was due to a decrease in nitrogenase activity which was no longer synthesized and reversibly inactivated, both effects being alleviated by the addition of glycine betaine. In R. capsulatus E1F1, inhibition of cell growth in nitrate by salt was due to a rapid inhibition of nitrate uptake, which led to a long-term decrease in nitrate reductase activity, probably caused by repression of the enzyme. Addition of glycine betaine immediately restored nitrate uptake, but the recovery of nitrate reductase activity required several hours. Neither ammonium uptake nor ammonium assimilation through the glutamine synthetase-glutamate synthase pathway was affected by NaCl.
