Intramolecular Electron Transfer in Nitrite Reductases [PDF]
ChemPhysChem, 2005 AbstractThe copper‐ and heme‐containing nitrite reductases (NiRs) are key enzymes in denitrification. Their subunits contain two distinct redox‐active metal centers, an electron‐accepting site and a nitrite‐reducing site, to carry out the single‐electron reduction of nitrite to nitic oxide. Catalytic cycles of both enzyme families employ intramolecular

Nitrate and nitrite reductase activities of Mycobacterium avium
International Journal of Mycobacteriology, 2018 Background: In spite of the fact that the standard test for nitrate reductase activity is negative for Mycobacterium avium, it can grow in a defined minimal medium with either nitrate (NO3) or nitrite (NO2) as sole nitrogen sources.

Isoform-Specific NO Synthesis by Arabidopsis thaliana Nitrate Reductase
Plants, 2019 Nitrate reductase (NR) is important for higher land plants, as it catalyzes the rate-limiting step in the nitrate assimilation pathway, the two-electron reduction of nitrate to nitrite.

Environmental Science and Ecotechnology, 2020 Heterotrophic nitrification-aerobic denitrification (HNAD) is essential in diverse nitrogen-transforming processes. How HNAD is modulated by quorum sensing (QS) systems is still ambiguous.

Regulation of Nitrite Reductase [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1987 A protein with molecular mass of 67 kilodaltons is immunoprecipitated from in vitro translated products obtained from rabbit reticulocyte lysate primed with polyadenylated RNA from nitrate treated illuminated pea seedlings. This protein resembles the native nitrite reductase because of its competitive elimination when immunoprecipitation of in vitro ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Under 660 nm visible light, Ru NCs efficiently photocatalyze nitrate‐to‐ammonium conversion and modulate oral nitrogen metabolism. They precisely perturb Veillonella parvula, block its key support to Porphyromonas gingivalis, and exert an “inhibiting without killing” antivirulence effect.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.An integrated probiotic system is engineered to execute a programmed therapeutic cascade against inflammatory bowel disease. Upon pathological signals, the system sequentially performs ROS scavenging, tungsten release, and selective pathogen suppression, thereby breaking the oxidative stress–dysbiosis cycle to remodel gut microbiota and reinforce ...

Protein complex formation during denitrification by Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Microbial Biotechnology, 2017 Summary The most efficient means of generating cellular energy is through aerobic respiration. Under anaerobic conditions, several prokaryotes can replace oxygen by nitrate as final electron acceptor.

Molecular underpinnings of nitrite effect on CymA-dependent respiration in Shewanella oneidensis
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 Shewanella exhibit a remarkable versatility of respiration, with a diverse array of electron acceptors (EAs). In environments where these bacteria thrive, multiple EAs are usually present.

Decreased nitrite reductase activity of deoxyhemoglobin correlates with platelet activation in hemoglobin E/ß-thalassemia subjects. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Nitric oxide (NO) can be generated from nitrite by reductase activity of deoxygenated hemoglobin (deoxyHb) apparently to facilitate tissue perfusion under hypoxic condition.
