TLDR
The enzymes considered in this chapter include nitrate reduct enzyme, nitrite reductase, hyponitrite reduCTase, hydroxylamine reductases, enzymes of denitrification, and some other enzymes such as aldehyde oxidase with related properties.Abstract:
The enzymes considered in this chapter include nitrate reductase, nitrite reductase, hyponitrite reductase, hydroxylamine reductase, enzymes of denitrification, and some other enzymes such as aldehyde oxidase with related properties. The properties of the various enzymes are described in relation to the different plants and micro-organisms from which they have been obtained1.read more

Sulphite- and NADH-dependent Nitrate Reductase from Thiobacillus denitrificans
Veena Sawhney,D. J. D. Nicholas +1 more
TL;DR: A membrane-bound nitrate reductase from Thiobacillus denitrificans can utilize either sulphite or NADH as an electron donor and a possible scheme for electron transport for the sulphite- and NADH-dependent enzyme is proposed.
