Cable bacteria (C are filamentous Desulfobulbaceae that split the energy-conserving reaction of sulfide oxidation into two half reactions occurring in distinct cells. CB can use nitrate, but the reduction pathway is unknown, making it difficult to assess their direct impact on the N-cycle. Here we show that the freshwater cable bacterium Ca. Electronema sp. GS performs dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium (DNRA). 15NO3--amended sediment with Ca. Electronema sp. GS showed higher rates of DNRA and nitrite production than se
