<StructureSection load='' size='350' side='right' caption='Bacterial periplasmic dissimilatory nitrate reductase containing Fe4S4 cluster with Mo, NO3- and molybdepterin guanine nucleotide (PDB entry [[2jiq]])' scene='49/490062/Cv/3'> | |||
== Function == | |||
'''Nitrate reductase''' (NR) catalyzes the reduction of NO<sub>3</sub> to NO<sub>2</sub> using NADPH<ref>PMID:13152110</ref>. NR active site contains Mo atom. Four types of NR are known:<br /> | |||
'''eukaryotic assimilatory NR'''<br /> | |||
'''bacterial cytoplasmic assimilatory''' (NAC)<br /> | |||
'''bacterial membrane-bound respiratory''' (NAR)<br /> | |||
'''Nitrate reductase''' (NR) catalyzes the reduction of | '''bacterial periplasmic dissimilatory''' (NAP).<br /> | ||
The cofactors of NR are Molybdopterin (MPT) in eukaryotic NR and bis-Molybdopterin guanine dinucleotide (MGD) in bacterial NR. | |||

<scene name='49/490062/Cv/7'>Bacterial periplasmic dissimilatory nitrate reductase containing Fe4S4 cluster with Mo, NO3 and 2 molybdepterin guanine nucleotides</scene>. NAP active site includes a <scene name='49/490062/Cv/8'>six-coordinated Mo atom which coordinates to 2 MGD molecules and Cys140</scene>. The <scene name='49/490062/Cv/9'>NO3 molecule is guided to the active site by a funnel leading to the Mo atom</scene><ref>PMID:18327621</ref>. | |||
