| UniProt functional annotation for Q8YQD8 | |||
| UniProt code: Q8YQD8. |
| Organism: | Nostoc sp. (strain PCC 7120 / SAG 25.82 / UTEX 2576). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Cyanobacteria; Nostocales; Nostocaceae; Nostoc. | |
| Function: | Mediates electron transfer from NADH to oxygen, reducing it to water. This modular protein has 3 redox cofactors, in other organisms the same activity requires 2 or 3 proteins (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}. | |
| Cofactor: | Name=Fe cation; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:24875; Note=Binds 2 iron ions per subunit.; | |
| Miscellaneous: | By homology with NorV in E.coli, could be involved in nitric oxide detoxification. {ECO:0000250}. | |
| Similarity: | In the N-terminal section; belongs to the zinc metallo- hydrolase group 3 family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
| Similarity: | In the C-terminal section; belongs to the flavodoxin reductase family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
