Nitrate reductase (NADH) - Misplaced Pages

Nitrate reductase (NADH) (EC 1.7.1.1, assimilatory nitrate reductase, NADH-nitrate reductase, NADH-dependent nitrate reductase, assimilatory NADH: nitrate reductase, nitrate reductase (NADH₂), NADH₂: nitrate oxidoreductase) is an enzyme with systematic name nitrite: NAD oxidoreductase. This enzyme catalyzes the following chemical reaction

nitrite + NAD + H₂O

\rightleftharpoons

nitrate + NADH + H

Nitrate reductase is an iron-sulfur molybdenum flavoprotein.
