From Emilio Fernandez, University of Cordoba, May 2006, by way of Erik Hom

This mutant, which is deficient in L-amino-oxidase activity, was isolated by Fernández and colleagues. A personal communication from Olivier Vallon indicates that reduced LAO expression is also characteristic of nitrate reductase mutants, so this is not necessarily a mutation in the LAO1 structural gene.
