Structures of variants of Escherichia coli flavodiiron‐type nitric oxide reductase reveal changes in the di‐iron site

Acta Crystallographica Section D, EarlyView.
Flavodiiron proteins (FDPs) are di‐iron enzymes that reduce NO and/or O2 with distinct substrate selectivity. We have produced E. coli FDP variants targeting second coordination‐sphere residues and determined their structures. Although the kinetics remained unchanged, the E.
