Activation of 1-nitropyrene by nitroreductase increases the DNA adduct level and mutagenicity [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
1-Nitropyrene (1-NP) is a mutagenic nitro compound in the environment. We studied correlations between the mutagenicity of 1-NP for three strains of Salmonella typhimurium, the activity of bacterial nitroreductases and the amount of 1-NP-derived DNA ...

Fast analysis of nitrobenzene by nitroreductase modified electrode

open access: yes, 2011
Nitroreductase (NR) was modified on glass carbon electrode and used in nitrobenzene analysis. Both cyclic voltammetry (CV) and triple potential step chronocoulometry (TPSC) with a narrow potential step interval were used.

Quinone- and nitroreductase reactions of Thermotoga maritima 3 peroxiredoxin–nitroreductase hybrid enzyme

open access: yes, 2012
Thermotoga maritima peroxiredoxin–nitroreductase hybrid enzyme (Prx–NR) consists of a FMN-containing nitroreductase (NR) domain fused to a peroxiredoxin (Prx) domain. These domains seem to function independently as no electron transfer occurs between them.

The gene suicide system NTR/CB1954 causes ablation of differentiated 3T3L1 adipocytes by apoptosis

open access: yesBiological Research, 2004
The feasibility of ablating differentiated adipocytes and the mechanism of cell ablation with a suitable prodrug activating system is described. The system is based on the use of E. coli nitroreductase (NTR) enzyme that activates certain nitro compounds,
