Crystal structure of bacterial nitroreductase (NR) NfsB in complex with the traditional medicine berberine (BBR) showed <scene name='92/920253/Cv/2'>BBR binds into the active pocket at the NfsB dimer interface</scene>. BBR is mainly stabilized by π-stacking interactions with both neighboring aromatic residues and the cofactor FMN. Several well-ordered water molecules neighboring BBR in the active site probably donate protons in conjunction with electron transfer from FMN for BBR reduction. | Crystal structure of bacterial nitroreductase (NR) NfsB in complex with the traditional medicine berberine (BBR) showed <scene name='92/920253/Cv/2'>BBR binds into the active pocket at the NfsB dimer interface</scene>.
