CYTOCHROME CD1 NITRITE REDUCTASE, REDUCED FORM COMPLEXED TO CN

Overview

Cytochrome cd(1) nitrite reductase is a bifunctional enzyme, which can, catalyze the 1-electron reduction of nitrite to nitric oxide and the, 4-electron reduction of dioxygen to water. Here we describe the structure, of reduced nitrite reductase, crystallized under anaerobic conditions. The, structure reveals substantial domain rearrangements with the c domain, rotated by 60 degrees and shifted by approximately 20 A compared with, previously known structures from crystals grown under oxidizing, conditions. This alternative conformation gives rise to different electron, transfer routes between the c and d(1) domains and points to the, involvement of elements of very large structural changes in the function, in this enzyme. In the present structure, the c heme has a His-69/Met-106, ... [(full description)]
