Cloning and nitrate induction of nitrate reductase mRNA [PDF]
Nitrate is the major source of nitrogen taken from the soil by higher plants but requires reduction to ammonia prior to incorporation into amino acids. The first enzyme in the reducing pathway is a nitrate-inducible enzyme, nitrate reductase (EC 1.6.6.1).

The biochemical comparison between two forms of nitrate reductase from cucumber roots: the soluble enzyme and the plasma membrane-associated one was made. Soluble nitrate reductase was purified on the blue-Sepharose 4B.

Nitrate reductase catalyses the oxidation of NAD(P)H and the reduction of nitrate to nitrite. NR serves as a central point for the integration of metabolic pathways by governing the flux of reduced nitrogen through several regulatory mechanisms in plants,

The controlled synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using cell-free filtrate of Fusarium oxysporum fungus was investigated. The effect of fungal incubation period on nanoparticle formation and nitrate reductase enzyme activity was studied using UV ...

Immunological comparison of the NADH:nitrate reductase from different cucumber tissues
Soluble nitrate reductase from cucumber roots (Cucumis sativus L.) was isolated and purified with blue-Sepharose 4B. Specific antibodies against the NR protein were raised by immunization of a goat.

The flavin reductase ActVB from Streptomyces coelicolor: characterization of the electron transferase activity of the flavoprotein form [PDF]
The flavin reductase ActVB is involved in the last step of actinorhodin biosynthesis in Streptomyces coelicolor. Although ActVB can be isolated with some FMN bound, this form was not involved in the flavin reductase activity. By studying the ferric reductase activity of ActVB, we show that its FMN-bound form exhibits a proper enzymatic activity of ...

As an essential component of amino acids and nucleic acids, nitrogen (N) is a key element of life. For atmospheric (dinitrogen, N2 ) and environmental (nitrate and nitrite, NO3 - and NO2 - ) sources of N to be utilized in amino acid synthesis in various ...

On The Regulation of Spinach Nitrate Reductase [PDF]
A coupled assay has been worked out to study spinach (Spinacea oleracea L.) nitrate reductase under low, more physiological concentrations of NADH. In this assay the reduction of nitrate is coupled to the oxidation of malate catalyzed by spinach NAD-malate dehydrogenase.
