EC 1.14.12.17
Names
Accepted name:
nitric oxide dioxygenase
Other
name:
NOD
Systematic name:
nitric oxide,NAD(P)H:oxygen oxidoreductase
Reaction
- 2 nitric oxide + 2 O2 + NAD(P)H = 2 nitrate + NAD(P)+ + H+
Cofactors
Comments:
A flavohemoglobin (FAD). It has been proposed that FAD functions as the electron carrier from NADPH to the ferric heme prosthetic group.
