| Accepted name: |
nitric oxide dioxygenase |
| Reaction: |
2 nitric oxide + 2 O2 + NAD(P)H = 2 nitrate + NAD(P)+ + H+ |
| Glossary: |
nitric oxide = NO = nitrogen(II) oxide |
| Systematic name: |
nitric oxide,NAD(P)H:oxygen oxidoreductase |
| Comments: |
A flavohemoglobin (FAD). It has been proposed that FAD functions as the electron carrier from NADPH to the ferric heme cofactor |
