Therefore, this protein likely plays a role in peroxynitrite sensing and in the detoxification of reactive nitrogen and oxygen species (RNS and ROS, respectively) (PubMed:32295384). Is able to bind nitric oxide (NO) in vitro, but may act as a sensor of peroxynitrite levels in vivo (PubMed:19938152, PubMed:32295384). Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMed The protein from Arabidopsis thaliana gene locus At1g79260.1 is comprised of 166-residues and is of previously unknown function. Initial structural studies by the Center for Eukaryotic Structural Genomics (CESG) suggested that this protein might bind heme, and consequently, the crystal structures of apo and heme-bound forms were solved to near atomic resolution of 1.32 A and 1.36 A, respectively. The rate of hemin loss from the protein was measured to be 3.6 x 10(-5) s(-1), demonstrating that it binds heme specifically and with high affinity. The protein forms a compact 10-stranded beta-barrel that is structurally similar to the lipocalins and fatty acid binding proteins (FABPs). One group of lipocalins, the nitrophorins (NP), are heme proteins involved in nitric oxide (NO) transport and show both sequence and structural similarity to the protein from At1g79260.1 and two human homologues, all of which contain a proximal histidine capable of coordinating a heme iron. Rapid-mixing and laser photolysis techniques were used to determine the rate constants for carbon monoxide (CO) binding to the ferrous form of the protein (k'(CO) = 0.23 microM(-1) s(-1), k(CO) = 0.050 s(-1)) and NO binding to the ferric form (k'(NO) = 1.2 microM(-1) s(-1), k(NO) = 73 s(-1)). Based on both structural and functional similarity to the nitrophorins, we have named the protein nitrobindin and hypothesized that it plays a role in NO transport. However, one of the two human homologs of nitrobindin contains a THAP domain, implying a possible role in apoptosis. Proteins 2010. (c) 2009 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
