Description
An iron-sulfur flavoprotein (FAD) containing siroheme. This prokaryotic enzyme is specific for NADH. In addition to catalysing the 6-electron reduction of nitrite to ammonia, the enzyme from Escherichia coli can also catalyse the 2-electron reduction of hydroxylamine to ammonia. cf. EC 1.7.1.4, nitrite reductase [NAD(P)H].
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder
Storage
Store it at +4 ºC for short term. For long term storage, store it at -20 ºC～-80 ºC.
Synonyms
nitrite reductase (reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide); NADH-nitrite oxidoreductase; assimilatory nitrite reductase (ambiguous); nirB (gene name); nirD (gene name)
Reaction
NH3 + 3 NAD+ + 2 H2O = nitrite + 3 NADH + 5 H+
