Here, we determine a 2.2 A cryoEM structure of qNOR from Alcaligenes xylosoxidans, an opportunistic pathogen and a denitrifying bacterium of importance in the nitrogen cycle. This high-resolution structure provides insight into electron, substrate, and proton pathways, and provides evidence that the quinol binding site not only contains the conserved His and Asp residues but also possesses a critical Arg (Arg720) observed in cytochrome bo(3), a respiratory quinol oxidase. A 2.2 A cryoEM structure of a quinol-dependent NO Reductase shows close similarity to respiratory oxidases.,Flynn AJ, Antonyuk SV, Eady RR, Muench SP, Hasnain SS Nat Commun. 2023 Jun 9;14(1):3416. doi: 10.1038/s41467-023-39140-x.
