In the fermentation of L-aspartate by a free-living Campylobacter spec., the products formed were acetate, succinate, carbon dioxide and ammonia. The oxidative part of the fermentation pathway yielded acetate, succinate, carbon dioxide and ammonia, and the reductive part gave rise to the formation of succinate and ammonia. When grown anaerobically with aspartate, cells contained cytochromes b and c as well as menaquinone. Reduced cytochrome b, but not reduced cytochrome c could be reoxidized by fumarate. In the presence of nitrate, 90% of the available electrons were transferred to nitrate, which was reduced to nitrite; the remainder was transported via the fumarate reductase system. Cells grown with aspartate and excess of formate converted aspartate quantitatively to succinate.
在一种自由生活的弯曲杆菌属菌株发酵L-天冬氨酸的过程中，形成的产物有乙酸盐、琥珀酸盐、二氧化碳和氨。发酵途径的氧化部分产生乙酸盐、琥珀酸盐、二氧化碳和氨，还原部分则导致琥珀酸盐和氨的形成。当在天冬氨酸存在下厌氧生长时，细胞含有细胞色素b和c以及甲萘醌。还原型细胞色素b而非还原型细胞色素c可被富马酸盐重新氧化。在硝酸盐存在的情况下，90%的可用电子转移至硝酸盐，硝酸盐被还原为亚硝酸盐；其余的则通过富马酸盐还原酶系统运输。在天冬氨酸和过量甲酸盐存在下生长的细胞将天冬氨酸定量转化为琥珀酸盐。
