ID 1.7.2.1 DE nitrite reductase (NO-forming). AN cd-cytochrome nitrite reductase. AN cytochrome c-551:O2, NO2(+) oxidoreductase. AN cytochrome cd. AN cytochrome cd1. AN hydroxylamine (acceptor) reductase. AN methyl viologen-nitrite reductase. AN nitrite reductase. AN nitrite reductase (cytochrome; NO-forming). AN nitrite reductase (cytochrome). AN Pseudomonas cytochrome oxidase. CA Fe(III)-[cytochrome c] + H2O + nitric oxide = Fe(II)-[cytochrome c] + CA 2 H(+) + nitrite. CC -!- The reaction is catalyzed by two types of enzymes, found in the CC perimplasm of denitrifying bacteria. CC -!- One type comprises proteins containing multiple copper centers, CC the other a heme protein, cytochrome cd1. CC -!- Acceptors include c-type cytochromes such as cytochrome c-550 or CC cytochrome c-551 from Paracoccus denitrificans or Pseudomonas CC aeruginosa, and small blue copper proteins such as azurin and CC pseudoazurin. CC -!- Cytochrome cd1 also has oxidase and hydroxylamine reductase CC activities. CC -!- May also catalyze the reaction of EC 1.7.99.1 since this is a well- CC known activity of cytochrome cd1. CC -!- Formerly EC 1.6.6.5, EC 1.7.99.3 and EC 1.9.3.2.
