Structures of substrate- and product-bound forms of a multi-domain copper nitrite reductase shed light on the role of domain tethering in protein complexes

Structures of substrate- and product-bound forms of a multi-domain copper nitrite reductase shed light on the role of domain tethering in protein complexes

Copper-containing nitrite reductases (CuNiRs) are found in all three kingdoms of life and play a major role in the denitrification branch of the global nitrogen cycle where nitrate is used in place of dioxygen as an electron acceptor in respiratory energy metabolism. Several C- and N-terminal redox...
