CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY:
CC Reaction=Fe(III)-[cytochrome c] + H2O + nitric oxide = Fe(II)-
CC [cytochrome c] + 2 H(+) + nitrite; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:15233, Rhea:RHEA-
CC COMP:10350, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:14399, ChEBI:CHEBI:15377,
CC ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:16301, ChEBI:CHEBI:16480,
CC ChEBI:CHEBI:29033, ChEBI:CHEBI:29034; EC=1.7.2.1;
CC -!- COFACTOR:
CC Name=Cu(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29036;
CC Note=Binds 1 Cu(2+) ion. The Cu(2+) ion is held by residues from each
CC of 2 monomers of the trimer. Nitrite is bound to the Cu(2+) ion site.
CC Pseudoazurin is the physiological electron donor for the Cu-NIR in
CC vitro.;
CC -!- COFACTOR:
CC Name=Cu(+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:49552;
CC Note=Binds 1 Cu(+) ion. The Cu(+) ion is bound within a single
CC monomer.;
CC -!- COFACTOR:
CC Name=FAD; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:57692;
CC -!- PATHWAY: Nitrogen metabolism; nitrate reduction (denitrification);
CC dinitrogen from nitrate: step 2/4.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homotrimer. {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Periplasm.
CC -!- DOMAIN: The type I copper site in NIR plays a crucial role for electron
CC transfer from pseudoazurin to the type II copper site of NIR, which
CC comprises the catalytic center of NIR for the reduction of nitrite.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the multicopper oxidase family. {ECO:0000305}.
