Descriptor English: Nitrate Reductase (NAD(P)H)
Descriptor Spanish: Nitrato-Reductasa (NAD(P)H)
Descriptor nitrato reductasa (NAD(P)H)
Scope note: FLAVOPROTEÍNA con hierro y azufre que contiene MOLIBDENO y cataliza la oxidación de nitrito a nitrato. Esta enzima puede usar NAD o NADP como cofactores. Es una enzima clave implicada en el primer paso de la asimilación de nitrato por PLANTAS, HONGOS y BACTERIAS. Previamente ha sido clasificada como EC 1.6.6.2.

RDF Unique Identifier: https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D050896
Scope note: An iron-sulfur and MOLYBDENUM containing FLAVOPROTEIN that catalyzes the oxidation of nitrite to nitrate. This enzyme can use either NAD or NADP as cofactors. It is a key enzyme that is involved in the first step of nitrate assimilation in PLANTS; FUNGI; and BACTERIA. This enzyme was formerly classified as EC 1.6.6.2.
